CBS Reporter Lara Logan Says She Will Return to Work After Brutal Sexual Assault

There was breaking news yesterday that CBS Chief Foreign Correspondent Lara Logan had suffered through a brutal sexual assault and beating during Friday’s protest in Cairo.

Lara was rushed home the next day and put in to a US hospital where she could begin to recover from her wounds.

CBS and those close to Lara are keeping a tight lid on her exact condition and location.

However, Lara has since released a statement of her own saying she plans on being back to work in the next couple of weeks.

From TMZ:

"CBS reporter Lara Logan is vowing to return to work ... and she's telling friends what happened to her in Egypt will not destroy her.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us the details of Logan's assault are horrible -- but Lara is back with her kids and is vowing to go back to work within weeks.

One source tells us Lara has an 'incredibly tough constitution' -- and she is candidly discussing what happened to her."

Wow. Would you even be able to consider going back to work just days after you were assaulted on your job? How brave of her to try and go back so soon, but hopefully she will take enough time to recover.

Lara has kids at home that probably worry about their mother. Would you want your friend, mother, sister, wife or cousin to go back in to that type of situation?
