CBS News confirms multiple breaches of Sharyl Attkisson’s computer

Ok, so enlighten us all....What is the point of referring to a political opponent using a pejorative name to describe who you are talking about, after the man has admitted years ago his problem, receiving treatment for the problem, and being a success. If Limbaugh were some drug addled hooker, that got through rehab, and went on welfare roles for the rest of her life, she'd be a hero to you. But since you don't like political opponents, instead making an argument, you use vitriol, name calling, and childish simplistic crap to argue....You don't make any points, you just attack...That isn't debate, that is just plain immature.

He isn't a political opponent, he is a rabble rouser, an 'entertainer' when it suits the Radical Right, get it correct. what office has he held/run for an office/spoke at a convection? no he WAS held up as a leader until he jumped the shark and then quickly disavowed in public, but he is a 'conservatives' guilty little pleasure to hear him rant and bash in his self described 'Theater of the Absurd'... PT Barnham would be proud!

You leave out the 'before' to Oxcy Rush's story. He viciously attacked others for 'ducking' into rehab rather than take personal responsibility until HE got busted then he did the duck n cover routine... :roll:

In my first post, the half sentence American focused on I simply stated the pig never had an original idea and stole the 'theorem' from the Reagan years. American opened the door, I just responded. You 'conservatives' love to blame everyone BUT yourselves.

FYI I use Oxcy Rush the same way soooo many 'conservatives' use Hanoi Jane so deal with it.... :roll:

I prefer Andrew Wilkow to Rush anyway, but if you want to come off as some bitter, name calling, child instead of using well reasoned debate then far be it from me to try and steer you clear of that....Carry on destroying your own credibility....

Laughing... nice spin, you take dance in school? No Sir, YOU stay out of conversations that first don't involve you and second you take a tiny part out of and then complain when your head gets handed to you.

Oxcy Rush bitterly attacked Morton Downing jr for taking an alternative drug program which involved rehab rather than be sentenced for drug possession in court. 'Didn't take personal responsibility' 'hid behind lawyers and doctors claiming it is a sickness' 'can't be a man and take his punishment' oh how Oxcy Rush shook with indignant rage....

then came Oxcy Rush's turn to stand up like a man.... what did he do? He ran to rehab, hid behind doctors, claimed it was a sickness, got him a slick lawyer to do his talking.... :roll:

So yeah I am going to always refer to him as Oxcy Rush

FYI it was YOU taking us off topic by making an issue of one line in my entire series of posts.... if my explanation on what a pompass piece of crap Oxcy Rush is offends then walk away.

Oxcy Rush is like soooo many other 'conservatives'- expects everyone else to take responsibility for their actions but when it comes to taking responsibility for their own.... well we get diva divers like Oxcy Rush and a sad whiny series of binky threads down below.... :2wave:
 
Just another way to minimize the scandals that THIS administration are responsible for...When will progressives ever get tired of running blocker, or apologist for this criminal in office today?

Look Dave, I am less concerned with what happened 5 to 12 years ago, and prefer to focus on the here and now. I know that a defender of liberty like yourself (tongue in cheek there) would agree that it doesn't matter as much what the last guy did, or didn't do, unless you want to use that to say that what is going on now is ok with you....And I know that such an honest guy like yourself would NEVER be so duplicitous as to defend any administration with such a weak assed argument like, "Well, the other guy did it too..."


:roll:


I see clearly. You want to ignore lies, torture, kidnapping, GITMO, The Patriot Act, hundreds of thousands dead, refugees, homeless, maimed, unauthorized wiretapping within the USA and all approved by perhaps the illustrious "hehehe" Alberto Gonzales, a dead economy, and numerous other grievances. You want to just forget about the recent history because "those that don't learn from their mistakes are doomed to repeat them." Go for it.
 
today:

Just days after CBS News confirmed that reporter Sharyl Attkisson’s computer had indeed been hacked, Attkisson spoke to Dom Giordano about the investigation.

“This suspicious activity has been going on for quite some time – both on my CBS computer and my personal computer,” Attkisson said. “CBS then hired its own independent cyber security firm, which has been conducting a thorough forensic exam … they were able to rule out malware, phishing programs, that sort of thing.”

Attkisson described some of the bizarre things that were happening with her computer.

“There were just signs of unusual happenings for many months, odd behavior like the computers just turning themselves on at night and then turning themselves back off again. I was basically able to verify and obtain information from my sources on the suspicious activity and I reported it to CBS News in January because of course it included CBS equipment and systems.”

Attkisson could not speak about whether the hacking was related to her questions about Benghazi because of “legal counsel,” but she did say her work at that time was primarily on the occurrence.

“Whoever was in my work computer, the only thing I was working on were work-related things with CBS were big stories I guess during the time period in questions were I guess Benghazi and ‘Fast and Furious.’ The intruders did have access to personal information including passwords to my financial accounts and so on, but didn’t tamper with those, so they weren’t interested in stealing my identity or doing things to my finances. So people can decide on their own what they might have been trying to do in there.”

When asked how she felt about being hacked, Attkisson had this to say:

“Even apart from this specific incident with my computers … I operate as though someone is looking at what I do, just because that’s the safest thing,” Attkisson said. “While it’s upsetting to have that sort of intrusion done, it’s also not that unexpected.”

Attkisson also confirmed that the investigation is still ongoing, and that she still has questions about the way the Benghazi incident was handled.

“We’re continuing to move forward aggressively, CBS News takes this very seriously, as do I. I think whenever an unauthorized party comes into the home of an American, whether it’s any private citizen or journalist and gets in their house, searches their computers — these are computers my family uses — and they’re inserting or removing material for whatever their reasons are, I think that’s a really serious and disturbing matter and we’re gonna follow it up and keep pursuing it.”

ms attkisson appeared on bill-o tonite and said she thinks she knows who's responsible

but she's not saying

yet

stay tuned
 
"The unauthorized party accessed the CBS computer at my home on multiple occasions, and specifically in December, they used sophisticated methods to cover their tracks, meaning they tried to remove the indications of their previous unauthorized activity," CBS News investigative correspondent Sharyl Attkisson shared. "We're not prepared to talk more about the who's and who did this today, but the intruder is considered highly skilled and used very sophisticated methods."

"I'm outraged that anyone would do such a thing and CBS News takes all of this very seriously," she added.

I am glad I don't carry such hatred for people I have never met before....It must really tear you up.

Is Obama more, or less like Bush?

Laughing, why do some of you 'conservatives' miss the bile and pure, raw hate spewing from other 'conservatives' and call anyone who disagrees with you by calling a right wing hate monger a hypocrite and give the reasons why- hate carrying? Dude you will know when I am hateful and this ain't it. Calling a worthless ranter out isn't hateful, and just because you have no rebuttal to defend this butthead doesn't mean I am mean.

Hear me now and believe me later, ain't none of this crap tearing me up... Been too far into the crap for peckerheads like Oxcy Rush to do much for me. This Conversation wouldn't have happened except two 'conservatives' made Oxcy Rush the issue. My point was and still is Oxcy Rush is an intellectual thief and stole the 'theorem' idea from the Reagan debacle called Irangate, or Iran-Contra.

You two started a whine train about calling poor drug user Oxcy Rush out... :roll:

I want everyone to read this post over, and over, and then tell us that you don't carry any hate for non progressives, or that you even can see through your own vile ranting enough to see that you are just being vitriolic for the sake of shock value alone..It's base, and disgusting, and that is all I have to say to you.

My oh my, you are going to get the vapors at this rate... Vile rantings? Do you see me typing about a woman wanting birth control in her insurance plan and calling her a slut and if 'we' pay for her BC pills 'we' should get to watch her have sex?

That was from the man you think I am being vile about... :shock:

But answer me this, are you trying to convince us you have seen no, I say again, ZERO vile ranting and puke from those who call themselves 'conservatives'???

No Sir I point out the hypocrisy of Oxcy Rush and the strong representation of 'conservatives' whining when they take even so much as a warning in here.

I do note you change the criteria, from a hate that is tearing me up to 'any hate'. :roll:

No hate in my heart but no passes either.... :peace
 

But not entirely unexpected, Attkisson says, adding that she works as though someone is snooping. I see that she remains muzzled for legal reasons, but that's fine if her employer, CBS, is taking the lead. And taking a refreshingly new look at the Obama Admin.

Attkisson: “We’re continuing to move forward aggressively, CBS News takes this very seriously, as do I. I think whenever an unauthorized party comes into the home of an American, whether it’s any private citizen or journalist and gets in their house, searches their computers — these are computers my family uses — and they’re inserting or removing material for whatever their reasons are, I think that’s a really serious and disturbing matter and we’re gonna follow it up and keep pursuing it.”

Start a thread about your nemesis "Oxcy Rush" and take all your pathetic drivel there. Meanwhile, what we see from the Obama Admin and its lemmings is a desperate attempt to cover Obama's ass on Benghazi. It ain't going away folks. Not until that Loser is completely exposed.
 
Is Obama more, or less like Bush?


Truthfully, they don't compare. GWBush, the first incompetent, spent eight years destroying the US economy by starting two wars on the credit card and cutting taxes for the wealthy. During this AWOL drug users Presidency, the USDollar lost value from 120 to 80 because the whole world could see this economic incompetence and lost confidence in the USDollar. To add to this economic incompetence, GWBush, the first torturer, and a military pilot we spent a million dollars training and then signed a paper stating he would not go to Vietnam to use these expensive talents patriotically, created an environment in Iraq that caused Al Queda in Iraq to be formed (no Al Queda allowed by Saddam) resulting in USA responsibility for a minimum of 116,000 deaths. GWBush, the first liar, installed a legal cabal to interpret any laws or agreements contrary to original intent, example the Geneva Conventions. Now Obama learned from this and installed the Alberto Gonzales clone, Holder, as AG. GWBush, the first moron, and appointed by the Supreme Court, took the lead in blessing us with the, already prepared by somebody, Patriot Act, and know by the name that it doesn't have anything to do with patriotism, and we are realizing the fruits of that act on a daily basis with the NSA up our collective asses. I don't know, but think you should make your own comparisons as regards Bush and Obama.

Ahhhh another 'conservative' wearing blinders. I didn't start the Oxcy Rush diversion, THAT was done by one 'conservative' and maintained by another. You really are not capable of seeing the facts as they present themselves which is why I believe the Radical Right is in for a lot of disappointment in their efforts to muck rake before the 2014 and 2016 elections.

It won't go away because the Radical Right needs to divert attention from their own little knife fight over immigration, but the question that is far more important-

Will all the 'conservative' wailing help the GOP or sound more like 'The Donald' and his 'interesting findings' about President Obama's birth certificate??? :confused:

Hahahahaha ........ thanks for the good morning laugh ! Meanwhile, the revelations about this reporter's computers being hacked certainly gets headlines ! Riles the libtards too ..... makes them go all bananas over Rush and immigration ....:2razz:
 
Laughing, he makes his money in a tried and true method developed before he was born. Rant to the masses like Father Coughlin. There is a fool born every minute from PT Barnum, and a fool and his money are soon parted. Throw in a touch of Moa, tell a lie often enough.... tahhhh dahhh you have Oxcy rush, villifier of hollywierd types getting away with drug abuse and they should be hung I tell you , HUNG.... ahhh until he gets busted for Oxcy and then he does the EXACT same thing... personal responsibility my shiny hiney. :doh

He is just very good at ranting to the masses, his talent lies not in being original but in being absurd and that has a loooong list of those going before him. :peace

If they're tried and true, how come progressives on the radio have failed. Guess they're just no-talent morons.

Because many of them act like Lawrence O'donnell, and melt down on air when challenged....So, the only place for no talent hacks, like Maddow, or O'donnell, and the like is MSNBC. Thank God they only have so much room to fill in the idiot blocks.

You DO realize you bought hook line and sinker into the whole " Bush Lied People Died " false narrative right ?

" One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develope WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION and the missles to deliver them. That is our bottom line "
Bill Clinton 1998..

There are NUMEROUS additional quotes from Democrats that said pretty much the same thing prior and during the Iraq war.

PLUS, the Dems VOTED TO GO TO WAR..

So your hang up isn't with Conservatives, it's personal as you only have your self to blame.

Your additional rants are irrelevent and hypocrritical ( Clinton fired mamy US attorneys in 1993 ) and you havent expressed as of yet the economic knowledge to make a statement like " Bush destroyed the economy ".

You have to have a fundamental grasp of our free market system in order to be taken seriously and if your'e currently ignoring the destruction of the economy via Obama's incompetence then there is not much hope for you.

So the Dems used you, so what. Be less gullible and quit taking it out on Conservatives.

Free Market system. Haven't you ever heard of the USTreasury's PPT, plunge protection team, and about those bond prices. You're absolutely right. One of us doesn't understand the free market system. Hint. It's in the mirror. Take a peek.
 
If they're tried and true, how come progressives on the radio have failed. Guess they're just no-talent morons.
True, progressives have failed on the radio - because they require pictures. And crayons. And specific directions to stay between the lines. If it weren't for bananas, they wouldn't know how to use a condom.
 
If they're tried and true, how come progressives on the radio have failed. Guess they're just no-talent morons.

Thinking the target audience for Ocxy Rush is stay at home angry old white guys while the target audience for progressives would rather listen to music than hypocrites ranting a pack of half truths at the VERY best.

That and maybe the Progressives don't do hillbilly heroin.... :2wave:

Either that, or there is a bigger market for right wing hype and drivel than there is for left wing hype and drivel. i wonder why that could be?
