Here's the PDF of the dump (769 pages). http://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/She-is-out-of-Control.pdf
Most transparent administration ever, or most Nixonian in history?
how did the white house attempt to muzzle attkisson; what did they do which should be found inappropriate?
okHere's an example from the OP.
One of the documents provides smoking gun proof that the Obama White House and the Eric Holder Justice Department colluded to get CBS News to block reporter Sharyl Attkisson. Attkisson was one of the few mainstream media reporters who paid any attention to the deadly gun-running scandal.
In an email dated October 4, 2011, Attorney General Holder’s top press aide, Tracy Schmaler, called Attkisson “out of control.” Schmaler told White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz that he intended to call CBS news anchor Bob Schieffer to get the network to stop Attkisson.
Schultz replied, “Good. Her piece was really bad for the AG.”
Schultz also told Schmaler that he was working with reporter Susan Davis, then at the National Journal, to target Rep. Darrel Issa (R-CA). Issa led the House investigation into Fast and Furious. Davis now works at USA Today. In the email chain, Schultz tells Schmaler that he would provide Davis with “leaks.”
Davis wrote a critical piece on Issa a few weeks later.

which is why i am asking you to show us what you are attempting to assert
thus far you have offered nothing substantive to show us how the white house tried to muzzle reporter attkisson
Which is what?
Is it inappropriate for an administration to talk to the editor of a reporter?
to stop attkisson from what?Clearer than this it does not get.
White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz said that he intended to call CBS news anchor Bob Schieffer to get the network to stop Attkisson.
to stop attkisson from what?
to place a muzzle on her?
To stop her from doing her job.
show us the email where that is stated
i'll wait
That has already been reported.
