Dan Rather was robbed

Wondering if Logan and McClellan are being paid while they're away.

Jeff Fager, chairman of CBS News and executive producer of '"60 Minutes," informed staff Tuesday that Lara Logan and her producer, Max McClellan, would be taking a leave of absence following an internal report on the news magazine's discredited Oct. 27 Benghazi report.

Fager's memo and findings of an internal review [are at the link.]

Always thought Rather was set up to take that fall. CBS caved to wingnut's invented outrage. Certainly Rather's investigation was not so thoroughly disgraced at this Benghazi hoax, or should we call it a paean to wingnut conspiracy blather. Yet he was fired and he was blackballed from appearing on air during their JFK anniversary coverage just days ago. At the very least Dan Rather is owed a huge apology.
