Lara Logan
Lara Logan, born 29 March 1971, is a South African radio and television journalist and war reporter. She was an official CBS News correspondent from 2002 until 2018.60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager described her factually incorrect, politically biased piece on 2012 Benghazi as "the worst mistake I have made in the past 10 years." In 2019, she joined the Sinclair Broadcast Group, a conservative media firm. The company was acquired by Fox Nation, a subscription streaming service owned by Fox News, in January 2020. She said that she was "dumped by the company" in March 2022. Logan was a student as a reporter for the Sunday Tribune, Durban (1988-1989) and then the Daily News (1990-1992). She was hired by Reuters Television Africa in 1992 as a senior producer. After four years, she decided to branch out into freelance journalism and was appointed as a reporter, editor/producer and editor/producer for Fox/SKY, Fox/SKY and CBS News, ABC News (in London), NBC and the European Broadcasting Union. CNN was her homebase, where she covered events like the 1998 United States embassy bombings, in Nairobi and Tanzania. Additionally, she covered the ongoing conflict between Northern Ireland and Kosovo.
