60 Minutes is (was) the most trusted news source for the American people. Recently, they aired a story by so-called journalist Lara Logan, which turned out to be totally false because they were "misled" by their source. This is a weak excuse, as anyone with knowledge of the city of Benghazi could have told them there story was fantasy within the first few minutes. Lara Logan is guilty of not only not-vetting sources, but deliberately pushing the neoconservative pro-war message regardless to facts.

When Dan Rather's report on George W. Bush's National Service Record was discovered to have faulty sources...he was forced to resign, among others (4 producers).

Why should Mrs. Logan stay, when she has made such a grievous error, and her history shows that if allowed she will do it again?

The momentum behind this call for accountability continues to grow. It is clear that many others recognize the necessity of upholding journalistic integrity at the highest levels.

Total disgrace. Journalism used to mean something before people like this started making it up as they go.

If Dan Rather had to go she needs to be gone yesterday. No double standards.

She lied on 60 for better ratings. Never checks her sources.
