Did anyone notice some tension between Katie Couric & Lara Logan on CBS?
I'm not sure if Couric didn't like Logan's analysis or if she was just pissed that Logan is prettier than her.

14. So if men criticize Couric, they are sexist and
if women criticize her they are sexist too. Nice circular logic there.

15. Maybe he was.
Anderson Cooper was really pissed a few years back when Olbermann was named the sexiest anchor on cable.
