Attkisson, who has been with CBS News for two decades, had grown frustrated with what she saw as the network's liberal bias, an outsized influence by the network's corporate partners and a lack of dedication to investigative reporting, several sources said.

    She said she wanted to concentrate on writing her book but I am guessing her phone is ringing even as we speak. Someone will sign her.

    She seemed to uphold the old objective standard of reporting - who, why, what, when, and where. Sigh.

    Someone needs to do an expose on Harry Reid.

    She is working on a book and then I hope you are right. The journalist profession needs people like her.

    Yes! Not sure why I didn't think of that. A message has been sent loud and clear. Support the Fuhrer or wind up like Sheryl.

    She was foolish enough to think she was doing journalism, rather than PR for Democrats and the Obama administration. I'm sure the other CBS reporters will get the message.

    I don't watch CBS. According to this she was tough on Obama and the higher ups didn't like it. Not surprising they wanted her gone.

    Perhaps the only remaining lefty journalist with any integrity.
