Showing Original Post only (View all)Right-wing Hack Lara Logan placed on leave over discredited '60 Minutes' report she made up [View all]
CBS correspondent Lara Logan has been ordered to take a leave of absence after an internal review found her discredited "60 Minutes" segment on the Benghazi consulate attack was poorly vetted, the network said in a memo to staff.
The network also asked Logan's producer, Max McClellan, to take a leave of absence. CBS did not specify a length for the leaves.
"As Executive Producer, I am responsible for what gets on the air," CBS' Jeff Fager said in the memo. "I pride myself in catching almost everything, but this deception got through and it shouldnt have."
Logan has already publicly apologized for the October story, which featured an interview with security contractor Dylan Davies, who claimed he witnessed the 2012 raid that left four Americans dead.
