Sharyl Attkisson |
Just days after CBS News confirmed that reporter Sharyl
Attkisson’s computer had indeed been hacked, Attkisson spoke to WPHT 1210 AM’s Dom
Giordano about the investigation.
“This suspicious activity has been going on for quite some
time – both on my CBS computer and my personal computer,” Attkisson said. “CBS
then hired its own independent cyber security firm, which has been conducting a
thorough forensic exam … they were able to rule out malware, phishing programs,
that sort of thing.”
Attkisson described some of the bizarre things that were
happening with her computer.

“There were just signs of unusual happenings for many
months, odd behavior like the computers just turning themselves on at night and
then turning themselves back off again. I was basically able to verify and
obtain information from my sources on the suspicious activity and I reported it
to CBS News in January because of course it included CBS equipment and systems.”
Attkisson could not speak about whether the hacking was
related to her questions about Benghazi
because of “legal counsel,” but she did say her work at that time was primarily
on the occurrence.
