THR is reporting that on Sunday night, New York Magazine published an expose online looking into Logan's past, detailing the events leading up to and after the faulty report aired and posing the question about whether she will be returning to the newsmagazine. It also paints her as a driven, ambitious, hardworking, rising star within CBS News who was a favorite of CBS Corp. chief Leslie Moonves.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, here just one of the six biggest revelations from the story:
The former swimsuit model knows how to use her looks to her advantage.
She became a tabloid sensation after London papers published pictures of her in a swimsuit and dubbed her "34D Lara." New York Magazine also claims she gave exclusives to papers like The Mirror, including one reading: "Here’s a sight that would stop the Taliban in its tracks. War reporter Lara Logan relaxes on a deck chair in a sizzling swimsuit."
She also reportedly once admitted to telling a photographer about her lingerie hanging on a laundry line. "Men play on the military thing, they play on the macho thing, they play on the brotherhood thing," she once said. "No one accuses them of using gender to their advantage. The fact is that sometimes being a woman can open doors for you, but more often than not it makes things more difficult."
Logan, who reportedly once showed up to work in a black bustier, also drew attention from the troops: A list of top 10 reasons to be deployed in Iraq was circulated among soldiers that included "Lara Logan in a T-shirt." And Gen. David Petraeus apparently had a picture of her in his office.
