Lara Logan: 'Conservative' Media's Latest Blond Ambition
2019-02-22
[Unz Review] In 2018, Lara Logan left her perch as foreign correspondent for CBS’s "highest-rated, most profitable and best-known program, ’60 Minutes.’"

She is currently doing the rounds, assuaging "conservative" media’s appetite for celebrity. The latter have a Uriah-Heep like propensity to fawn over swamp-based, defecting, big-name media celebs.

It’s as though Logan is job hunting, on a blond-ambition tour‐for she certainly has no news to impart other than a few banal catchphrases. Logan has "revealed," first to Breitbart podcaster Mike Ritland, that‐OMG! ‐the media are "mostly liberal."

Yes, Logan has been pontificating about the tritest of truths: the media are liberal.

Ever in search of defecting celebrities around whom to create buzz, the pack dogs of "conservative" media picked up Logan’s scent and gave chase. Mission accomplished.

In a lovey-dovey, public tête-à-tête, Fox News’ Sean Hannity hinted to his higherups at Fox that they should hire Logan. One wishes they’d do this self-congratulatory cable-news porn behind closed doors. Like we don’t already suffer an abundance of Fake News, No-News and salacious news.

#3  "Seen the light" on one issue (third worlders are not noble because they are poor) does not mean much.

After Sept 11 there were a lot of folks that seemed conservative but had only one issue on mind and eventually most of them tired of that issue and embraced the left again. Little Green footballs comes to mind.

#1  Lara Logan is a "liberal" who've seen the light. Such people are very rare nowadays - most liberals won't give their beliefs no matter what: notice all the quasi-humans who've been attacked by Muslims (or "African-Americans" in USA) and publicly apologize for having "improper thoughts" in the aftermath.
