Seasoned CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson reveals how she has been electronically surveilled while digging deep into the Obama Administration and its scandals, and offers an incisive critique of her industry and the shrinking role of investigative journalism in today’s media.
Americans are at the mercy of powerful figures in business and government who are virtually unaccountable. The Obama Administration in particular has broken new ground in its monitoring of journalists, intimidation and harassment of opposition groups, and surveillance of private citizens.
Sharyl Attkisson has been a journalist for more than thirty years. During that time she has exposed scandals and covered controversies under both Republican and Democratic administrations. She has also seen the opponents of transparency go to ever greater lengths to discourage and obstruct legitimate reporting.
Attkisson herself has been subjected to “opposition research” efforts and spin campaigns. These tactics increased their intensity as she relentlessly pursued stories that the Obama Administration dismissed. Stonewalled is the story of how her news reports were met with a barrage of PR warfare tactics, including online criticism, as well as emails and phone calls up the network chain of command in an effort to intimidate and discourage the next story. In Stonewalled, Attkisson recounts her personal tale, setting it against the larger story of the decline of investigative journalism and unbiased truth telling in America today.

Her second book is here:

not sure about her...
and here's why.. she's one of the vaccinations cause autism nutbags. I don't think it's the case at all that there's an actual rise in the number of people with autism.
This is because there are more things which are considered autism which have been added to the spectrum thus widening it and increasing the spectrum thus the diagnosis rate.
then there's her infamous "oh noes..i has been hacked"... no it was a stuck delete button!

"We've debunked Sharyl Attkisson so often that she now is accusing Media Matters of being part of a grand conspiracy against her."

I could go on however... the claim may be.. "but but.. read smear!!..that will explain it all..... nah....i just don't buy what she is selling
View every source objectively and without bias
You just called me a nutbag.
No, vox wrote that smear, and you believed them. Here is a link to an interview by a smarmy little shit where she explains the truth about the video, and how she had independent forensics prove she was surveilled and monitored months before that video was made:

Do you deny that governments surveil journalists?
If you want to refute Attkisson's claim that Media Matters smears people, do you think it's a good idea to use Media Matters as a source?
Do you deny that the corporate media smears people?

Do you deny what she says about media manipulation in the above video?
nope... of course they do..but
her vaccination link to autism i don't buy, for the reasons i stated that using Occam's razor ....the rise in diagnosis rate is explained simply due to the widening of the autistic spectrum to include thins that weren't on it before and are now considered to be part of it...
As for media manipulation.. of course it goes on via various blatant an subtle means.. it's hardly a revelation.
governments carry out surveillance on anyone they like. not just journos
As a former soldier who had a photographic role I have had my lens of many a character in Northern Ireland for example.
From journo's to politicians, policemen, political "activists",housewives, bar workers, council workers....shit loads.
And we also knew there was shed-loads going on elsewhere in the UK using various other technical methods of observation .
I'll get back to this and be more specific on the vaccination one tomorrow. just back n the door and been up since 6am.
Am goosed

Fuck Occam's razor. It's not how science works. There is plenty of evidence that vaccines can cause autism. A doctor quit the CDC in disgust because they were suppressing direct evidence. Anyway I'm not going to waste my time when it's obvious you've made up your mind. Sad.
wow! :P
that was a wee bit Trump there bud! :P
