Shame on CBS, indeed. As Twitchy readers know, the brave Sharyl Attkisson recently resigned from CBS News. On Sunday, she gave an interview to Fox News’ Howard Kurtz.

Attkisson’s revelations blasted the shameful bias of CBS and the Obama administration’s “chilling effect” on reporting via intimidation. James Rosen and other Fox News journos sure know about that, too.

Unbelievable, yet totally believable to those who aren’t bitterly clinging to White House spin, propped up by lapdog media who help the Obama administration bury its bones. The shake fisty is strong with this one.

@HowardKurtz @SharylAttkisson : excellent segment. Maybe we'll get back to professional, honest journalism. Brave woman.

@HowardKurtz @farrellob @SharylAttkisson I'd like to see many more journalists 'have her back' too. You all need to protect your profession.
— Nancy (@LogicalDame) April 13, 2014
Yes.
This Twitter user puts it in an exit nutshell:
@KatMcKinley @SharylAttkisson @MediaBuzzFNC Sharyl is the pinnacle of her profession. She is what every reporter should be. Period.
