Mark Steyn's tale of two rapes

Mark Steyn writes about the fake rape story that Rolling Stone Magazine devoted 9000 words to.
Meanwhile, what of an actual rape victim who couldn't get her story told by CNN or anybody else? Breitbart reports:

CBS News 60 Minutes correspondent Lara Logan is back in the hospital in Washington, D.C., due to years-long complications stemming from the brutal sexual assault she endured in Egypt while covering the Arab Spring in early 2011...

"Very few people know how stoic and incredibly tough this lady is. In spite of everything she's had to face in the last two years, people have no idea the physical suffering she has been enduring due to the brutal sexual assault she encountered in Egypt during the Arab Spring while reporting for 60 Minutes," Ed Butowsky, a close friend and confidante of Lara and her family, told Breitbart News.

Lara Logan's "assault" - for some reason, the same people willing to expand the definition of "rape" to include utter fantasy are reluctant to apply the word to what happened to Miss Logan - at any rate, her "assault" took place in Tahrir Square just after Mubarak's resignation and at the height of the western media's delirious jubilation at the "Facebook Revolution". Jackie's "horrific gang rape" didn't happen, but to the media it's true because it fits the narrative. Lara's actual gang rape is true but to the media it didn't happen because it doesn't fit the narrative.

...~Incidentally, an hour after Mubarak fell, I was on air with Megyn Kelly and described what was happening as "the unraveling of the American Middle East". I'll stand by that, too. On Sunday the last US personnel abandoned yet another imploding Arab state, where yet another franchise of the jihad frolics and gambols through yet another abandoned US diplomatic compound, gleefully firing into the air the state-of-the-art weaponry we left behind.
