|
| 00:03:53 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
IN THE PUBLIC MIND WITH BEING A WAR CORRESPONDENT. AND IN YOUR MIND, HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE BEING A WAR CORRESPONDENT? WHAT ARE THE QUALITIES THAT...
|
| 00:04:06 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
THINK THERE IS SOMETHING TRUE OF ALL PEOPLE THAT DO THE WORK I DO. I THINK THE STORY IS BIGGER THAN YOU. THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE MOTIVATED BY. IF YOU ARE...
|
| 00:05:02 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
THERE AS A SIT-IN FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES IN THIS CASE? >> IF YOU IMAGINE THERE
|
| 00:05:09 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
ARE THINGS THAT HAPPEN OUT THERE AND NO ONE WITNESSES IT, THEY NEVER HAPPEN. THE WAR IN ANGOLA, NO ONE CARED ABOUT THAT WAR. RIGHT REUTERS WOULD...
|
| 00:05:41 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
IN YOUR MIND A ROLE MODEL THAT YOU LOOKED UP TOSS A WAR CORRESPONDENT. >> THERE ARE
|
| 00:05:48 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
SO MANY PEOPLE THAT I RESPECTED, BUT I NEVER WANTED TO BE SOMEBODY ELSE. I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE MY OWN PERSON AND I DIDN'T GROW UP IN THE ARMS OF...

|
| 00:07:14 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
AFFAIRS CORRESPONDENT FOR CBS, YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED UPON TO COVER STORIES THAT NOT ONLY MEAN WAR BUT DIPLOMACY OR STATE DEPARTMENT. >> BETTER KNOWN...
|
| 00:07:31 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
POLITICS. >> HOW DO YOU SEE THAT
|
| 00:07:34 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
YOURSELF? DO YOU SEE YOURSELF DOING THE WAR THAN THE SUMMIT? >>
|
| 00:07:38 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
YES. AND MORE INVESTED IN IT. IT REQUIRES MORE OF YOU AND ASKS TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE AND ASK WHAT IS TRULY IMPORTANT. I WOULD GIVE UP A TOILET AND...
|
| 00:08:16 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
THE PRESIDENT OF THIS COUNTRY AND THE PRESIDENT SITTING OVER THERE DOING SOMETHING FOR WAR AND PEACE IS A BURNING ISSUE? >> IT DOESN'T BURN IN
|
| 00:08:29 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
ME. AS PAINFULLY BORING SOMETIMES. SO MUCH DIPLOMATIC SPEAK THAT YOU SPEND HOURS TRYING TO WORK OUT WHAT THE HELL THEY JUST TOLD YOU. >> YOU THINK...
|
| 00:08:47 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
PEOPLE WHEN THEY TALK TO YOU ARE STRAIGHT TALKERS? >> NOT
|
| 00:08:51 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
ALWAYS. BUT I HAVE BEEN VERY ADEPT OF SORTING OUT THE TALKING POINTS FROM WHAT'S REAL. AND I HAVE ACQUIRED A REPUTATION OF HAVING KNOWLEDGE SO THEY ARE...
|
| 00:09:12 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
HONEST WITH YOU, THEY DON'T MIND WHEN YOU CALL THEM OUT ON IT. THEY KIND OF EXPECT IT. BUT WHEN YOU CALL A POLITICIAN ON OUT ON IT, THEY DON'T APPRECIATE...
|
| 00:09:27 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
EMBEDDED JOURNALISM. AND YOU YOURSELF HAVE BEEN EMBEDDED WITH AMERICAN FORCES ANY NUMBER OF TIMES AND YOU HAVE SPOKEN ABOUT QUOTE, THE UNWRITTEN RULES...

|
| 00:09:52 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MANY TIMES. WHAT DO YOU THINK ARE THOSE UNWRITTEN RULES OF EMBEDDED JOURNALISM? >> THE SAME RULES THAT APPLY
|
| 00:10:00 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
TO ANYTHING. RULES OF INTEGRITY. THAT'S REALLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. IF YOU ARE A CRIME REPORTER, A JUSTICE REPORTER, THERE ARE CERTAIN -- THERE...
|
| 00:11:16 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
GOOD. GOOD. YOU PROBABLY KNOW THIS ALREADY -- >> I DON'T READ MANY
|
| 00:11:24 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
BLOGS. >> THERE IS A BLOGGER WHO
|
| 00:11:26 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
REFERS TO YOU AS A PENTAGON FAVORITE JOURNALIST. WHY DO YOU THINK HE SAID IT? >> I THINK HE PROBABLY SAID
|
| 00:11:36 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IT BECAUSE WHEN GENERAL MCCHRYSTAL WAS RELEASED AFTER THE "ROLLING STONE" ARTICLE, I SAID SOMETHING STINKS HERE. I DIDN'T SAY THIS IS HORRENDOUS AND...
|
| 00:13:04 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
OF THAT. I GATHER WHAT YOU SAID IN THE PAST THAT YOU THINK JOURNALISTS OUGHT TO SHARE THEIR PERSONAL OPINIONS WITH THE PUBLIC. HANG ON. 2009, YOU'RE...
|
| 00:13:37 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT IS IN REACTION -- I WAS ON AN INTERNET SHOW AND I WAS ASKED FOR MY OPINION AND ANALYSIS. I WASN'T REPORTING. I WAS THERE AS...
|
| 00:14:25 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
A REPUTATION -- >> YOU ARE ASKING ME FOR
|
| 00:14:29 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
MY OPINION, RIGHT? >> YOU HAVE THIS REPUTATION
|
| 00:14:32 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
OF BEING OUTSPOKEN AND YOU HAVE ALREADY DEMONSTRATED THAT. [LAUGHTER] >> WHAT'S YOUR
|
| 00:14:38 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
OPINION THEN ABOUT THE QUALITY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION COVERAGE OF THE WARS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN? >> I THINK IT
|
| 00:14:47 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
VARIES WILDLY. IT'S HARD TO PAINT IT WITH ONE BRUSH. I DON'T LIKE HEAR ACADEMICS AND ANALYSTS WHO ARE TALKING FROM WASHINGTON, D.C., FOR EXAMPLE AND...
|
| 00:15:45 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
LIKE WHO. DEXTER PHILKINS FROM THE "NEW YORK TIMES." I HAPPEN TO THINK OF PEOPLE I RESPECT. RICHARD ENGEL. I DON'T ALWAYS AGREE WITH HIS ANALYSIS BUT...
|
| 00:16:29 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
WOULD SEE SOME REPORTING THAT AREN'T SEEING RIGHT NOW AND I DON'T BELIEVE I HAVE THE ANSWER. IT IS PATCHY AND LACK OF COMMITMENT. "60 MINUTES" HAS...
|
| 00:16:49 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
IF I WATCH THE NEWS THAT YOU ARE WATCHING HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, I WOULD BLOW MY BRAINS OUT. IT WOULD DRIVE ME NUTS. [LAUGHTER] >>
|
| 00:16:58 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
YES. I STAND BY THAT. [LAUGHTER] >> TAKE ONE STEP
|
| 00:17:03 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
BACK AND GO FROM COMMENTS ABOUT THE MEDIA TO COMMENTS ABOUT POLICY. THE INVASION OF IRAQ IN 2003, GOOD OR BAD IDEA? >> BAD
|
| 00:17:16 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
IDEA. >>
|
| 00:17:17 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
WHY? >> IT WAS BASED ON LIES,
|
| 00:17:19 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
FIRST AND FOREMOST. AND WE NEVER WENT INTO IRAQ TO HELP THE IRAQI PEOPLE. LET'S JUST BE FRANK ABOUT THAT UP FRONT. BUT MORE THAN THAT, BECAUSE IT...
|
| 00:18:27 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MISSING THERE? >> ARE WE WOULD LIKE
|
| 00:18:30 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
TO PRESENTED THAT GENERAL PETRAEUS CAME IN AND SAVED THE DAY. HE STOPPED THE BLOOD LETTING, BUT NOT BECAUSE OF THE SURGE, BUT HE MADE AN AGREEMENT...
|
| 00:18:46 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MADE IT? >>
|
| 00:18:47 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
ABSOLUTELY. BUT NOT UNTIL THERE WAS SO MUCH BLOOD ON THE SUNNIS HANDS THAT WE HAD THE POLITICAL WILL TO MAKE THAT KIND OF AGREEMENT. THE SURGE PREVENTED...
|
| 00:19:43 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
ABOUT AFGHANISTAN SINCE YOU HAVE BEEN SO BLUNT ABOUT YOUR VIEWS ON IRAQ. I RECENTLY WITH MY DAUGHTER DID A BOOK CALLED "HAUNT LEGACY" AND IT'S EFFECT...
|
| 00:20:30 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
AN INDICTMENT ON THE U.S. EMBASSY. I EXPECT NOTHING MORE FROM POLITICIANS AND FROM THAT EMBASSY. IKEN BERRY ALMOST DESTROYED IT AND DESTROYED IT...
|
| 00:21:34 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MEAN IN AFGHANISTAN? >> WHAT IT MEANS, WHAT
|
| 00:21:37 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
WERE YOUR ORIGINAL AIMS. GO BACK TO YOUR ORIGINAL AIMS. IT WASN'T AN INVASION. THE AFGHANS ARE THE ONES TO GO SAY THEY WERE TALKING TO THE TALIBAN...
|
| 00:23:55 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
REALLY AT THE HEART OF THE AMERICAN EFFORT NOW IN AFGHANISTAN? >> GET THE
|
| 00:24:00 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
HELL OUT. THAT'S ALL WE CARE ABOUT. IT'S COSTING TOO MUCH. WE DON'T THINK THE AFGHANS ARE WORTH THE FIGHT. AND WE WANT TO GET OUT OF HERE. >> AND...
|
| 00:24:12 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
PARTICULAR POINT, IF THE U.S. WERE TO WORK OUT A WAY OF GETTING OUT, WOULD THAT HAVE ACCOMPLISHED ITS ORIGINAL PURPOSE, IT SOUNDS TO ME THAT IT HAS...
|
| 00:24:24 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
IT IS. IT HAS BEEN A WASTE. YOU HAVE THE LOCATIONS. THE AFGHAN WAR -- >> YOU GO
|
| 00:24:33 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IN THERE. >> YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO
|
| 00:24:35 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IN THERE. IF YOU GOT THEIR PHONE NUMBERS AS I KNOW WE HAVE HAD FOR YEARS, YOU DON'T NEED TO GO ACROSS THE BORDER. >> WHAT DO
|
| 00:24:43 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
YOU DO? >> TAKE THEM OUT
|
| 00:24:45 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
THE SAME WAY AND ALL THE OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN KILLED THAT WAY. >>
|
| 00:24:50 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
WELL -- >> AND YOU DO IT, YOU TARGET
|
| 00:24:54 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
NOT JUST THEM BUT THE NETWORK AND TAKE 24-48 HOURS AND TARGET THE PEOPLE AND SEND A MESSAGE TO THE PACTS THAT PUTTING BODIES IN ARLINGTON CEMETERY...
|
| 00:25:15 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
NOW TO WHAT IS CALLED IDENTIFICATION, RADIO, TELEVISION AND WEB CAST VIEWERS AND THIS IS "THE KALB REPORT" AND I'M TALKING TO CHIEF FOREIGN AFFAIRS...
|
| 00:26:10 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
HAVE THIS -- YOU CARRY WITH YOU THIS IDEA THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE ME. YOU KNOW IT CAN HAPPEN. AND ONE DAY IT IS YOU. AND YOU CAN'T LIE TO YOURSELF...
|
| 00:27:53 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
PUZZLED BECAUSE A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE YOU ACTUALLY WENT BACK AND FACE THAT HAD AWFUL EXPERIENCE, I BELIEVE A FEW DAYS BEFORE YOU WERE ON "THE...
|
| 00:28:16 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IN EGYPT THE WEEK BEFORE. >> MY POINT IS
|
| 00:28:19 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
FEELING THAT YOU WERE TARGETED, HAVING BEEN ARRESTED, BUT YOU STILL WENT
|
| 00:28:24 |
Unidentified Speaker, -
BACK. >> YES. >> WHAT IS IT ABOUT LARA
|
| 00:28:27 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
LOGAN THAT CAN SAY SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUS AND THEN SAY LARA, LET'S SLOW DOWN BUT YOU WENT BACK ANY WAY? >> JOURNALISTS ARE
|
| 00:28:44 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
ANARCHRISTS AT HEART. MY PRODUCER, HE LOOKS LIKE HE WORKS FOR THE STATE DEPARTMENT EVERY DAY. IT DRIVES US CRAZY, BECAUSE WE COULD BE IN THE DESERTS...
|
| 00:30:27 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
OPENLY ABOUT THAT EXPERIENCE NOW AND QUITE A FEW TIMES AND I DON'T WANT TO BELABOR THE POINT. I HAVE A LARGER QUESTION IN MIND WHICH IS MORE THAN...
|
| 00:31:00 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
BOYS' CLUB. THAT FRAMES THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH YOU ARE WORKING. WOMEN ARE GOOD FOR A BIT OF FLUFF AS ANCHORS AND THEY FILL A PARTICULAR ROLE BUT TAKEN...
|
| 00:31:22 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MANY, MANY YOUNG WOMEN ARE NOW COVERING THE WARS. >>
|
| 00:31:26 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
NOW. BUT NOT 10 YEARS AGO. NOT WHEN I WAS COMING UP THROUGH THE RANKS. IF YOU DID, YOU WERE EXPECTED TO BE MANLY AND NOT ALLOWED TO WEAR MAKEUP OR...
|
| 00:33:42 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MORE DIFFICULT FOR A WOMAN TO COVER A WAR, ARE YOU? >>
|
| 00:33:46 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
NO. THERE ARE CERTAIN RISKS THAT WOMEN FACE. WHEN THE "NEW YORK TIMES" TEAMS WERE ARRESTED IN LIBYA, THERE WERE THINGS THAT HAPPENED TO THE MEN...
|
| 00:34:05 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
ABOUT YOU AND LOT OF THINGS WHAT YOU HAVE SAID AND WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID ABOUT YOU AND I COME AWAY WITH THE IMPRESSION THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE SEEM...
|
| 00:34:29 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
A PHOTOGRAPH OF ME CAN SELL A NEWSPAPER, APPARENTLY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT. I DON'T HAVE A GOOD ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION. ONE THING I WILL SAY, THOUGH,...
|
| 00:35:09 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
MINUTE AGO. DO YOU THINK THAT THE INDUSTRY NOW IS LOADED UP WITH PEOPLE WHO GO FOR YOUR BACK, WHO WANT TO DO YOU HARM? DO YOU LIVE IN THAT KIND...
|
| 00:35:23 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
OF JOURNALISTS. THAT IS THE NATURE OF THE INDUSTRY. I THINK THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE SUBJECTED TO IT. I'M NOT UNIQUE. >> LET'S TALK ABOUT
|
| 00:35:42 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
FOREIGN REPORTING FOR A FEW MINUTES. I HAVE THE IMPRESSION LATELY THAT IN TERMS OF FOREIGN REPORTING ON NETWORKS THAT ASIDE FROM REPORTERS WHO ARE LIVING...
|
| 00:36:54 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
GIVE IN AND OTHER TIMES I MIGHT GET PEOPLE UPSET. I MEAN IT WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST TIME THAT I DISAPPEARED. WHEN I COVERED RAMADI, NO ONE WOULD SEND ME...
|
| 00:39:15 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, AND I DON'T SEE IT. >> I'M NOT DRIVEN
|
| 00:39:19 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
BY MY HOURS AND MINUTES ON AIR, I'M REALLY NOT. THAT'S NOT THE MOTIVATION. IF YOU DO A STORY, YOU WANT IT TO BE OUT THERE AND WANT PEOPLE TO BE PAYING...
|
| 00:39:40 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
DOESN'T BOTHER YOU IF THEY DO A FEW MINUTES LESS. >> IT'S RUN BY
|
| 00:39:47 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
JOURNALISTS AND NOT CORPORATE EXECUTIVES. RUN BY JOURNALISTS. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND -- JEFF UNDERSTANDS AND IF I SAY I HAVE TO SPEND THREE WEEKS IN...
|
| 00:40:20 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
A STORY FOR "60 MINUTES"? >>
|
| 00:40:24 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IT DEPENDS. THE REASON I SPENT MY ENTIRE ACADEMIC CAREER CRASHING FOR EXAMS WAS PREPARATION FOR MY CAREER AT "60 MINUTES" BECAUSE I WILL BE ON AN AIRPLANE...
|
| 00:41:49 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
ABOUT NOT WANTING TO BE AN INSTANT EXPERT. YOU WANT TO SOAK IT UP. >> I
|
| 00:41:56 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
DO. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, WHEN YOU IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE LEVEL OF DETAIL TO DO A STRONG "60 MINUTES" INTERVIEW, THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN POPPING UP...
|
| 00:42:18 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
WORDS TO COVER, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO BE DOING? >> I JUST FILMED A
|
| 00:42:24 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
PROFILE IN COLOMBIA AND UP IN CANADA ON MICHAEL BUBLE. I HAVE BEEN SHOOTING A STORY ON POLO. I KNOW MORE ABOUT POLO THAN I EVER CARE TO KNOW. "60...

Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
MINUTES." >> WHEN DO YOU FIND

|
| 00:44:04 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
WITH A GLING CONTACT OR SOURCE AND FIND SOMETHING CRITICAL OUT AND PASS IT ONTO THE EVENING NEWS AND THAT LEADS TO SOMETHING. >> WHAT I'M GETTING
|
| 00:44:13 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
AT IT'S NOT A DAY-TO-DAY SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY. >> SCOTT UNDERSTANDS WHAT
|
| 00:44:19 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
IT TAKES TO DO 12 TO 15 "60 MINUTES" PIECES ON THE AIR AND DOESN'T PUT PRESSURE AND MY BOSS UNDERSTANDS THAT. PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND. EVERY ONE OF...
|
| 00:45:11 |
Kalb, Marvin - Presidential Fellow
AGO ABOUT READING BOOKS AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT, BUT WHAT ARE THE KIND OF BOOKS THAT YOU ENJOY READING? ARE YOU A MYSTERY READER...
|
| 00:45:25 |
Logan, Lara - Chief Correspondent
