  1. Yay, thank you for this! Appreciate the sources of your report. Missed the FMN report, so this was new to me. Would like a longer cast detailing what the vested interests of both parties are. Just your usual excellent, straightforward reporting. Amazing what an honest, intrepid reporter like you can do with a small but dedicated and hardworking staff can do!
    Suggest update on vaccine mandate situation across the states. And the real story behind the suspicious deaths of so many alternative med/holistic docs. Thank you for all you do! God bless you and your family and team! May St Michael protect you all always!

  2. Thank you SO much for this podcast. You are a true investigative reporter- a rare gem these days! I will listen as often as possible.

  3. Loved it! You are a rarity these days. Facts and more facts w/o bias. Ihave many thingsid like reported on just not sure where to start. I think the most pressing is all of the wasted efforts of the special prosecutor and where it should have been focused. Thanks

  4. Excellent audio quality and clear vocalization. It might be beneficial to add a text outline posted -with- the audio — bullet points for instance. (Which would make it easier to web search for the audio using content terms.)

    I appreciate your investigative work, reporting and your courage!

  5. Good Podcast. Not too long and believable. Loaded with supporting facts, as it should be. Nice to have you doing real reporter stuff without getting an opinion thrown in.

  6. Sharyl: I have been following you for a number of years because there are very few HONEST reporters left in America! Honest in the sense that you report what you find out, regardless of the way it leans. Currently, the LEFT is pushing as hard as they can “to the left” with either fabricated news or adulterated news. The RIGHT is laboring to catch up with the LEFT.

    This first audio was right up my alley because I have a Christian prison visitation ministry to California State prison. I enjoy working with the illegal felon lifers because THEY KNOW where “the bottom” is. They have hit it! Some have determined the path they have chosen was SO WRONG, they will do whatever it takes to change. I am currently working with one for 5 years on a 15-life, convicted of second degree murder in California from Mexico, but now is a licensed Pastor teaching, preaching, counseling, encouraging change, as an inmate still with 25 years in. His story is amazing how that change in his life came about. SOME CAN CHANGE!! Unfortunately, most do not opt to change, thus society CONDEMNS ALL! I work with those that desire and thirst for a change. Some do, and are condemned with those that don’t make the effort. If you were to do a story on those non-recidivists (of which there are many), YOU would be condemned as a bleeding heart by the Left and the Right. Isn’t that true, Sharyl?

    Fortunately, truth does NOT have a side; neither left nor right, but at least for now, King Solomon was right when he said (heee, heee)

    Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)
    The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
    but the heart of the fool to the left.

  7. Provide a transcript of the pod cast. Reading is a more efficient communications media. Pod Cast is good for people stuck in traffic.

  8. Good information. However, a written article would transmit the information more effectively for readers. Information transfer is slower in a pod cast. Also can’t quickly focus on key information and repeat.

  9. Excellent report Ms. Attkisson – succinct, focused and informative. You are a journalist I trust, something which has become a rarity. I will be sharing.

  10. I came across this by accident, and I’m so glad I did. This is exactly the kind of reporting that I wish I saw in the regular media – dispassionate and clear, identifying what’s known and what’s not (the facts), what is extrapolation and conjecture (logical conclusions identified as such), and listing sources with detail. Regardless of where an individual stands on an issue, good analytic reporting like this would help us all come to improved personal conclusions and opinions. I would like to suggest that transcripts of your future podcasts be available also. Thank you so much, Cassie Coleman

  11. This sort of reporting is so needed and so helpful. It is not the opinion blather that we hear all day long but actual facts distilled from a research report. Please, please, please continue doing this! It is very well received.

  12. Great podcast Shark. I wish other so-called journalist would report real facts versus half truths.
    In the future, I would like to hear about the truth about term limits for the house and senate and the implications. I have believed that the best way to reduce the influence of money in politics and to implement term limits. In this regard, it would also be interesting to know how much the net worth of a 20 year senator or representative increases during his/her tenure.
    Thanks again and I look forward to hearing more soon.

  13. Top notch reporting. Thank you.

    Sheryl, we desperately need an “open” timeline of the Trump “collusion” with Russia gambit. It has become so complex that it is frustrating to refresh ones memory when a new detail is added, such as the “coincidence” of the same government players who covered up the Syria arms deal, Benghazi and now are blocking release of details of the Trump investigation. I understand that coincidence is not causation, but too much coincidence is always a kick-starter for skepticism. St. Lactantius advised: The first part of wisdom is to determine what is false; the second is to search for the truth.

    Your reporting on migrant imprisonment ties in with “The Wall” and Willie Sutton’s “Sutton Law” about why he robbed banks and why desperadoes from Latin America come to the US: “That’s where the money is.” I would add that our prisons are many factors “nicer” than what hoodlums can expect in their home countries.

    Finally, in terms of your podcast: Excellent. I would like to be able to access the written script.

    You are one in a million. Journalism has morphed into voices of tainted babble and that is now its fatal flaw. Emotionalism hates reasoned reporting like a dog hates fleas.

  14. Enjoyed listening. Love the objective, factually based information. One topic that I would love to hear more about—and love to see corrected—is the embarrassing state of our public education system.

  15. Great episode and I look forward to more. When presenting facts, would be great to see your sources in the show notes page.
    And last I can’t wait to see your show on iTunes so I can subscribe

  16. I listen to podcasts often and would certainly add your name to my favorites list. Please continue to keep the American people informed!

  17. Thank you for this information. Its so nice to get facts. News so many times is not news it is more like entertainment. I listen to what you have to say….thank you!
