Lara Logan quarantined in South Africa over Ebola after visiting Liberia for a week to report on the deadly disease ravaging West Africa.


Lara Logan of CBS News is quarantined in South Africa over Ebola after a week long visit to Liberia to report on the disease ravaging the country and West Africa.

Lara Logan, who is from South Africa, is now in a hotel in South Africa, where she and her 60 Minutes colleagues are self-quarantined following their week long Liberia visit.

Lara Logan on Sunday night told CBS' 60 Minutes Overtime that the crew is spending a lot of time in the hotel "where the government has given us permission to work during our quarantine".

"We wanted to try and, as much as possible, minimise our exposure to anybody, while we still had to get our piece done."

"We were very mindful of the fact that this 21 day period after you've been in an Ebola infected country is very important to everybody," says Lara Logan, admitting to "cabin-fever" in the South African hotel.

"I haven't left the building since we've arrived here," says Lara Logan.

South Africa's Lara Logan inflicts terrible damage on America's version of Carte Blanche; says 'sorry' over wrong CBS 60 Minutes story.


South Africa's Lara Logan - now working for the American version of Carte Blanche - the investigative weekly news magazine 60 Minutes on the CBS Network, is failing to explain how the mistake happened of putting a man who've been blatantly lying, on the air.

Lara Logan has now apologised twice for the massive mistake which is damaging the credibility and the reputation of CBS News and of 60 Minutes, but is yet to explain how the mistake in her story actually happened.

Lara Logan interviewed Morgan Jones who claimed he was at the American embassy in Libya during the Benghazi attack. Yet he told the FBI earlier that he wasn't there.

The whole "eyewitness account" 60 Minutes broadcast with Lara Logan doing the interviewing, was completely fake.

Lara Logan and 60 Minutes put the disgraced security contractor on the air making wild statements and allegations in his fake story, although what he was saying, could clearly not be trusted with proper research and journalistic vetting.
