Lara Logan Has Returned to 60 Minutes After Absence

After a months-long absence over a controversial, discredited Benghazi report, CBS’ Lara Logan has returned to work on 60 Minutes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

CBS announced that Logan was taking a leave of absence back in November, weeks after Logan did a piece highlighting the account of a man whose story about what happened the night of September 11th, 2012 on the Benghazi compound. Logan apologized, but CBS still came under intense fire for airing the report.

But now, a CBS News spokesperson has confirmed to the Associated Press that Logan is back at work on 60 Minutes. It is not known when her next on-screen appearance on the newsmagazine will be.
