YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"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.
"As Executive Producer, I am responsible for what gets on the air," Fager wrote in a memo obtained by The Huffington Post. "I pride myself in catching almost everything, but this deception got through and it shouldn't have."
On the Oct. 27 broadcast, Logan interviewed Dylan Davies, a security officer who claimed that he witnessed the terrorist attack on the Benghazi compound that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans on Sept. 11, 2012. Davies, who had trained Libyan security guards for the State Department, claimed he scaled a 12-foot wall that night, knocked out a terrorist with his rifle and later saw Stevens dead in the hospital."* The Young Turks host Ben Mankiewicz breaks it down.
