Anderson Cooper talks to Nir Rosen about Lara Logan tweets

[khanriza]

"This guy," according to John King, was the best independent journalist to report about the Iraq War. He put himself in great danger to provide the world with unbiased reporting, even Noam Chomsky quoted him on many occasions.

And Anderson Cooper decides to interview him on some tweet.

[AndrewMann552]

Nir Rosen is one of the best journalists on the Middle East and he's FINALLY put on CNN over this?

[UberTankred]

what the hell is going on in the us? you guys are soooooooo sorry about everything! this guy had to suffer more for making a joke than the people who actually asaulted the bitch.

[TheBlackOnWhiteCrime]

@UberTankred Why is she a bitch? Are you a dog? Are we your female counterparts? Is that what it's supposed to mean? Nice, she gets raped and you call her a bitch.

[UberTankred]

@TheBlackOnWhiteCrime no one raped her. the story was blown out of proportion. lara logan is not a bitch because of this story. she's a an attention whore in general and trying to make erik prince look good after his mercenary-morons killed 17 civilians is an unspeakable act.

[100CommonCents]

twitter is for twits.

btw this is pathetic. Nir Rosen is sad.

[Arkinight]

A hit and a miss. There's a possible revolution going on, let's focus on gossip.

Mainstream media is just raw propaganda.

[shebakali6]

the left wing always sacrificies women's rights' because it is in alliance with islam. Both the left and islam hate the west, hate christianity. the left is also terrified of being called racist and is ignorant of the koran, the hadith and muhammed, the prophet.

[CrociatoAzzurro]

Nir Rosen = anti white

[moveintothelight]

@CrociatoAzzurro

he is not anti white

he is just a liberal freak

[xxdonaldqxxx]

The guy would have been better off telling Anderson Cooper to go fuck himself because he is supposed to be free to say whatever he wants to.This shit is getting to be like a giant sensitivity class.We now live in a society where you can lose your livelihood because of offensive speech.This whole freedom and democracy bullshit is a big con job.We are not free.

[wmhoad]

@xxdonaldqxxx Well said!

[EvilsOfFeminism]

@xxdonaldqxxx Exactly! Fuck these censorship-mongers who fire people for exercising the First Amendment. If I ran this country, the military would pull down such a business for threatening America. Screw the feminazis. Screw the mainstream media. I'm tired of living in 1984. "Oh, no! A sensitivity violator!' I am so sick of hearing the misandrist folks milk every "sexual assault" for all it's worth...if it's a woman.

[TheBlackOnWhiteCrime]

@xxdonaldqxxx NYU is also free to fire people with whom they do not agree.

[xxdonaldqxxx]

@TheBlackOnWhiteCrime Yes, maybe reporters and University Professors should toe the "party line" if they know what is good for them. They should always speak only what is politically correct and in line with what the company believes is correct or pay the consequence.

[Heritor]

@xxdonaldqxxx No they are smearing his career because Nir has been a longtime opponent of the wars. Journalists are not to be free but to report what shit like CNN, MSNBC, and Fox what them to report.

[moveintothelight]

@Heritor

nir is a shame

[rachelgolem]

Amy Goodman didn't go to Egypt because she was afraid Far Rosen would make fun of her if she got raped.

[wilatemodel]

somewhere there is a ex-wife pissing herself she is laughing so hard!!

[upstart1234ify]

Manginas are disgusting.

[alvincay100]

To tell the truth, the first thing I thought when I heard the Lara Logan story was that she would probably be getting a nice book deal. The sensationalism of the news is a joke, no doubt about it.

[Blanckmeister]

@alvincay100 a lot of people think her attack had alterior motives, but Logan was already famous and received a grammy I believe, so she has nothing to benefit from this horrible incident. You always have to second guess what you hear nowadays as the truth is hard to come by.

[w3media]

"this guy just thinks he can say what he wants, when he wants..."

of course he does, have you ever heard of freedom of speech?

He was an ass and now he's paying the price.

[EndOpressionSession]

Nir is an example of just how awful, fed up people can be...awful..awful...

[dmolmalowski]

Nir is a fucking insincere scumbag, he should do the noble and just completely retire, he serves no true purpose

[kwumey]

anderson cooper is a MORON and now trying to flexand jump on the Saint lara bandwagon. these reporters are full of shit!! and POSERS

[teskio]

are you a bad person? were you a meanie? were you a jerk ? are you fundamentally an asshole?

What's he wasting time on this shit for? He was an ass in that moment, period.

[mokhashin]

She was raped by many men according to multiple reports. I think there are legal reason why the actual rape has not come forward.

[nofrig]

Possibly they didn't air the video of the actual rape/assault out of respect for the privacy of the victim. Why would you want to see it?

[bltsrmsqt]

"Assault" is just another weasel world.

Was she raped? or groped or what? Why has nobody come forward with video- given the ubiquity of smartphones and gadgets?



[BoredomCorner]

@bltsrmsqt What are you, a snuff film fan?

[acr225]

@bltsrmsqt You are spot on. Using the word "rape" or "sexual assault" is a stretch. Remember we are dealing with corporate news and sex sells. The juicer the news the better it is for CBS . In reality, she was probably just pushed, shoved, and at most groped. There's no proof that the groping was sexual in nature. Thank God that Lara Logan is an attractive blond otherwise this would've never made news.

[Scalarburn]

@acr225: Even if she wasn't actually penetrated, she sustained a pretty brutal beating and had to be hospitalized.
