Instapundit is reporting that CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson was screamed at by the White House over her reporting on Fast and Furious:
 They will tell you that I’m the only reporter–as they told me–that is not reasonable. They say the Washington Post is reasonable, the LA Times is reasonable, the New York Times is reasonable, I’m the only one who thinks this is a story, and they think I’m unfair and biased by pursuing it.
I guess they want her in the tank along with all the other papers mentioned. It’s worth noting that at one time, reporters felt it was their responsibility to hold the government and its officials accountable. I guess that time has passed.
Ms. Attkisson better watch it, or she’ll get the Chicago treatment. I hope she’s been meticulous and scrupulous about her tax returns.
UPDATE: House GOP is calling for a special prosecutor to investigate Eric Holder. This is coming from Judiciary. Maybe this is why the White House and DOJ are so testy.
Clearly, there’s nothing to see here, because screaming at a reporter is what you do when you have absolutely nothing to hide, right?
The profession of reporting has become as dishonest and corrupted as the profession of politicking. Fast and Furious is a big story. Heads will certainly roll. We’ll see who BHO pardons in his final days. It’s good that those pardons won’t extend charges in Mexico.

One can only hope that this means the Obama White-House is falling apart
“They say the Washington Post is reasonable, the LA Times is reasonable, the New York Times is reasonable.”
Where “reasonable” = “They print what we tell them to.”
So much for the Fourth Estate…
Sure they don’t like her. She’s onto the truth that AG Holder was behind the scheme to get Americans killed with illegally purchased firearms. Issa needs to corner Holder and kick his butt to the curb.
Looks like CBS is shutting Attkisson down:
