Lara Logan on being a great journalist
Manage episode 332276014 series 2573945
Lara Logan is a journalist and war correspondent.
Besides being one of the greatest journalists of our time, what makes Lara even more special is that, like me, she is South African. Which, of course, gives me the privilege to laugh at her funny accent.
Her résumé is impressive, from CBS, to 60 Minutes, to FOX; and her decades of war reporting – including Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, and Libya – have been both brilliant and brutal. For example, Lara was attacked by a mob, and beaten, and gang-raped, while covering the 2011 revolution in Egypt.
In our conversation, she chatted about missing being in South Africa; Trump understanding the working class; the essence of journalism; navigating the fog of war; fake news, narratives, and facts; being gang-raped and the will to survive; and the dangers of the post-Covid world.
PLEASE SUPPORT MY WORK.
