The bizarre tale of Government spying on Sharyl Attkisson and the destruction of her research on Benghazi..
Computers weren’t the only devices on which former CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkissonobserved suspicious activity as she pursued stories about Benghazi. In her new book, “Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama’s Washington,” she writes about
