Speaking on
The Daily Show last week Logan lambasted the mainstream press in the US for its coverage, or lack thereof, of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan,
“I would like there to be more coverage of the wars,†she said. “I’d like there to be more money to have a bureau in Afghanistan as well as in Iraq. I’d like to see Zimbabwe on the air. That’s part of what my job is, to fight for those things.†link
