Lara Logan: A true journalist

The media constantly gets a bad rap from just about everyone who has anything to say about anything. On-air journalists probably get the worst of it.
Unfortunately, a lot of what is said about the media is true. Especially what they say about on-air talent. With a few notable exceptions. Folks like Anderson Cooper, Christiane Amanpour and Lara Logan, are among the few journalists you can tune in for unbiased, complete coverage of the world around you. They often put themselves in the line of fire to bring you the news that matters.
Last week Logan, was viciously attacked while reporting from Egypt.
Logan made a name for herself by reporting from Iraq and Afghanistan repeatedly and at great risk to herself. She showed viewers what was really happening there long after many other media outlets had seemingly forgotten there was an ongoing conflict there.
Sure, she's pretty. Yes, her personal life wasn't always pristine. So what? She is a damn good journalist and one of the few remaining on-air "talents" left for American viewers to tune in to watch...I wish her well and hope she will recover soon.
