cBS (please note the small "c"), after years of Obama/Progressive advocacy, is now concerned that one of its real reporters is being an advocate for the Right -- and they are going to get rid of her.

Understand that Sharyl Attkisson is no "right wing nut-case."  She is a Democrat through and through,  but,  as to her professional calling,  she is an investigative reporter.  You should know there is a difference between being an "investigative reporter"  and a "journalist."  When I was younger,  say 30 or 40 years ago (!!) and two decades before the age of  conservative citizen media and the likes of Rush Limbaugh,  there were a number of serious news personalities who were partisan in their thinking but professional in their reporting.  Walter Cronkite was a prime example.  In recent years,  we have all been fairly surprised at just how far Left,  Cronkite was.  And why?  Because he was arguably balanced in his reporting,  willing to investigate and report the outcome.  

Scott Pelley,  as partisan a hack as there is,  decries the mistakes made by the media,  as if he cares about real journalism,  and made his feelings public in a recent speech at Quinnipiac University,  in which he proclaimed "Our house (speaking of the media) is on fire."  While this sounds as if  Pelley has repented of his evil deeds,  keep in mind that his confessed partisanship continues to be mirrored in the news of the day, and the policy of his network,  to attack its own reporter(s) for telling the truth about Benghazi (see the story below).  Pelley is all blow and no show,  as he waxes eloquent before  a crowd of labdog reporters and students.   The truth,  for Pelley is this:  in the "Our House is on Fire"  speech,  he confessed to reporting on a bit of news that was completely false and knowingly so before he made his report.  And now,  after his speech,  we learn that his own news department is going after one of its own, Sharyl Attkisson,  for her reporting on Benghazi.  Will this spineless spin-meister stand up for the reporter under fire?  Of course not.  So much for Scott Pelley.  

Question:  would Fox dare hire a Democrat reporter who has proven herself to be fair and balanced  --  maybe replacing Shep Smith in the name of continued investigative reporting?  Nah,  but hope springs eternal in my house.  

From the  The Daily Caller:

The brother of a top Obama administration official is also the president of CBS News, and the network may be days away from dropping one of its top investigative reporters for covering the administration’s scandals too aggressively.

CBS News executives have reportedly expressed frustration with their own reporter,  Sharyl Attkisson, who has steadily covered the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi terrorist attack in Libya since late last year.

“Network sources” told Politico Wednesday that CBS executives feel Attkisson’s Benghazi coverage is bordering on advocacy, and Attkisson “can’t get some of her stories on the air.”

Attkisson, who is in talks to leave the network before her contract expires, has been attempting to figure out who changed the Benghazi talking points for more than five months.

“We still don’t know who changed talking points but have had at least 4 diff explanations so far,” Attkisson tweeted on November 27, 2012.
