Sharyl Attkisson shared her story about being monitored and wiretapped by the government on Thursday's broadcast of Hannity on the FOX News Channel. Attkisson said her keystrokes were monitored and that classified documents were planted on her computer using government proprietary software.



On Wednesday, Attkisson wrote a column for The Hill titled 'It looks like Obama did spy on Trump, just as he apparently did to me.'





ATTKISSON: Mine began before we heard about what the government had done to the Associated Press, and FOX News, before Edward Snowden. I had intel sources come to me and suggest that I was likely being monitored by the intel community or by certain actors in the Obama administration because of the stories I was doing.







Long story short, some people in the intel community helped me because they thought it was so egregious. Had forensics done on my computers, multiple computers, from CBS and my personal computers. And three independent exams have seen and proven forensics that they used government proprietary software to monitor my keystrokes, planted confidential classified documents in my computer, watched much of what I was doing. Exfiltrated files. Listened in on my audio. We have dates, times, and methods for a lot of this as well as government-owned IP addresses found in my computer.

Attkisson also talked about her protected lawsuit against the federal government that has gone on for over 30 months."The only reason I can prove it is because I had help from people inside the Obama intel community that thought this was so egregious they gave me the tools that I wouldn't normally have had to find this information," Attkisson shared. "For instance, forensically, I have a 2.5-year-old lawsuit, there's a hearing tomorrow in fact, against the Department of Justice.""The current Department of Justice continues to fight rather than directing them to tell the truth, follow the law, and get the facts. They're continuing to fight this in federal court. That's the only recourse and most people can't do that. It's very expensive and time-consuming. It's very hard to sue the government. You have to go through a lot of processes and get permission. It's almost insurmountable," Attkisson said on
