Subpoenas & grenades


(1) Issa subpoenas WH aide in Fast & Furious probe

This is the WH Aide that screamed and cursed at CBS's Sharyl Attkisson for covering the F&F story, for not being "reasonable" and covering it up, like the NYT and Washington Post.


(2) Gunwalking case becomes grenade-walking case?

Attkisson's bombshell report this morning about prosecutors standing by and allowing thousands of grenades flow into Mexico. MInd-boggling. The lady, notice, is not backing off the story. It's easy to imagine the pressure CBS is getting from the White House for being a disloyal team member. Let's see if Attkisson's grenade report makes it onto tonight's news broadcast, or if CBS decides to go instead with a story about, oh, some kid and his five-legged turtle.

Even if Attkisson ends up with the Pulitzer she deserves (she won't, needless to say), her future is probably now at Fox, not CBS.
