CBS Puts Lara Logan On Leave After Review Of Flawed Benghazi Report

CBS Puts Lara Logan On Leave After Review Of Flawed Benghazi Report NPR has obtained the findings of a CBS internal investigation of an inaccurate 60 Minutes report by Lara Logan. An internal review of a report that aired on CBS' "60 Minutes" about the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, reached damning conclusions. DAVID FOLKENFLIK, BYLINE: Well, in late October, Lara Logan, a star correspondent for CBS who's covered so much conflict there, presented this story to "60 Minutes'" viewers that really indicated a narrative in which American authorities were perhaps cavalier about taking security concerns seriously in Benghazi - and the possible presence of a threat from al-Qaida. He found that "60 Minutes" and Lara Logan had failed to, you know, recognize that when this very contractor - Mr. Davies - had said, you know, I lied to my superior, my boss, after the fact, saying that I hadn't been there that night; at minimum, that suggested he hadn't been consistent in his story throughout.
