In reply to the discussion: Lara Logan Married To Bush Propagandist [View all]yellowwoodII
(616 posts)59. Don't Blame Her Entirely
First of all, I don't believe that any of these "journalists" really do their own investigating and research. Some executive decides what should be investigated, what position CBS should take, and then assigns a staff to do the research. Then they pick a pretty face to deliver the message.
The pretty face has to agree, of course.
Blame CBS.
I've noticed that "Face the Nation" also comes from a very right wing perspective. How many times have they had McCain as a guest? Bob Schiffer's comments about the Administration are generally negative. Do I think that he's out there doing his own investigating and reporting? No.

This "lincoln group" that Logan married into is a right-wing propaganda catapult
