[font size=5]Sharyl Attkisson Blames Broken Laptop on Benghazi[/font]
J.K. Trotter

Sharyl Attkisson is about to publish a book about her experience reporting on various Obama-era scandals for CBS News, from which she resigned earlier this year. Today Media Matters reports that one of the more dramatic scandals, involving Attkisson’s personal laptop, exists entirely within its owner’s head. ....

One analyst told Groch-Begley: “From what we looked at and what we were able to replicate, from that piece of video we don’t see what we would call evidence of hacking. There are multiple explanations and we were able to demonstrate quickly and easily one possibil[ity], the backspace key.”

A stuck backspace key is, unfortunately, a less dramatic explanation than a hidden government conspiracy to surveil reporters who write unflattering things about the President. It is also the more likely one.
