The Obama Administration and The Media - The Two Shall Become As One Flesh


CBS News President, Brother of Obama National Security Official

From Will at THE OTHER NEWS:

CBS News President, Brother of Obama National Security Official.HT: DailyCaller.
Saturday morning Patrick Howley of The Daily Caller dropped another nuke on the fire that is Benghazi-Gate. Howley connects the dots surrounding a number of recent leaks coming of out CBS News about the fate of its award-winning investigative reporter, Sharyl Attkisson.
From the beginning, Attkisson has been one of the few mainstream journalists willing to dig into the September 11 terror attack in Libya, and the Administration's response to it. Fearing the story might lead exactly where it did yesterday with Jonathan Karl's bombshell report, the mainstream media has poured most if its energy into wishing the story away or playing Palace Guard for the White House.

Attkisson's dogged pursuit of the truth has not only pitted her against a media desperate to protect Obama, but also, apparently, against her bosses at CBS News, one of whom is the brother of a top Obama official.

Moreover, CBS News president David Rhoades is not only the brother of President Obama's national security advisor, Ben Rhoades, but ABC News reports that Ben Rhoades was very much involved in the editing of the now-infamous CIA talking points. So…

1. According to ABC News, Obama's national security advisor Ben Rhoades was deeply involved in the editing of the CIA talking points. 

2. These same CIA talking points are central to what many believe is a White House coverup.

3. Ben Rhoades is the brother of CBS News president David Rhoades.

4. At CBS News, Sharyl Attkisson is one of the only mainstream media journalists with the dogged determination and moral courage to demand the truth about the White House's involvement in the CIA talking points. 

5. For months now reports have surfaced that Attkisson's bosses are unhappy with her, that she has trouble getting her Libya stories on the air, and that she's being accused of engaging in "advocacy." Read the full Daily Caller piece here.

AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

via NewsBusters: 

"CBS News President David Rhodes and ABC News President Ben Sherwood, both of them have siblings that not only work at the White House, that not only work for President Obama, but they work at the NSC on foreign policy issues directly related to Benghazi."
*****
ABC president Ben Sherwood's sister , Dr Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall is a special assistant to Obama 
*****
Susan Rice, who was also a cabinet member of dear leader's national security team is the wife of Ian Cameron, who at the time of her appointment, was executive producer of ABC’s ”This Week with George Stephanopoulos“.
*****
Jeffery Immelt, who took over General Electric in 2001, was appointed to head Obama’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. GE was the owner of NBC Universal, which is NBC News, along with MSNBC. GE has not paid any federal income taxes during the entire Obama Administration. 

they tweeted their taxes paid to which I promptly responded those were paid to foreign country, $0 to the US federal gov't.

Just saw on Twitter, Susan Rice's net worth is over $40 million, including massive investments in Canadian oil resources, including the KeyStone Pipeline. And this from Mother Jones of all places. 
*****
CNN’s deputy bureau chief, Virginia Moseley, is the wife of Tom Nides, who until February was Hillary Clinton’s deputy.
*****
Jay Carney is married to Claire Shipman - Senior correspondent.
*****
Matthew Jaffe, a reporter for ABC News and Univision who covered the GOP primary, married a member of Obama’s press team. Jaffe married Katie Hogan, dear leader’s deputy press secretary.
*****
Lest we forget: Obama appoints wife of Univision owner to UN diplomatic post immediately after they called him out on the Fast and Furious gun running and just 15 days after the Benghazi murders (Fast and Furious II)
*****
The only mainstream media reporter really doing her job is CBS’s Sharyl Attkison. Attkison has also done a heroic job on the Fast N’ Furious Eric Holder gun running scandal. Now it appears CBS is pressuring her to leave. Gee, wonder why? 


AND THEN THERE'S THIS


Top Obama Official’s Brother Is President Of CBS News, Who May Drop Reporter Doing Investigative Work On Benghazi

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.
