NEW YORK — CBS ordered “60 Minutes” correspondent Lara Logan and her producer to take a leave of absence Tuesday following a critical internal review of their handling of the show’s October story on the Benghazi raid, based on a report on a supposed witness whose story can’t be verified.
The review, by CBS News executive Al Ortiz and obtained by The Associated Press, said the “60 Minutes” team should have done a better job vetting the story that featured a security contractor who said he was at the U.S. mission in Libya the night it was attacked last year1 posted on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 3:29:12 PM byGQuagmire
What could possibly account for this sudden slap on the wrist?
To: GQuagmire; null and void“The call” was made and orders were given.
But, that’s probably just a Nut-Job Conspiracy!
To: F15EagleNo doubt in my mind that’s what happened. ObamaJarrett saw an opportunity to b*tch slap the media back into line and took it.3 posted on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 3:34:09 PM byTADSLOS (The Event Horizon has come and gone. Buckle up and hang on.)
God love these stupid bastards. All we need is the right slogan, and we can get them to off themselves for the sake of party purity…
Sorry, guys – left out the punchline on the lead piece.
Fixed now – mea culpa.

As always, love reading the FR tale, told by an idiot full of sound and fury, yet signifying nothing.
But I am really, really, really, really confused by the quote of McCain saying that he hopes it is 15 years till we have to go through that again. Uh, didn’t this October/Nov exercise in stupidity end in a temporary fix which means we’ll be back to the point of need to simply fix the deficit, raise the debt ceiling, and get a budget through the House, Senate, and Prez – once again all at the same time in the next few months.
And has anyone seen much movement in any real discussion of these issues in the few months of breathing room we’ve gotten so far? (and no, “I’m gonna hold my breath until I’m blue in the face” does NOT count as a serious discussion. And “Do it like Grover Norquist or it is nothing” doesn’t count as negotiation
