EMBEDDED Logan • Bangin' in Baghdad?: The New York Post says CBS Chief Foreign Affairs correspondent Lara Logan was doing more than just reporting on the war from Iraq. The paper claims Logan carried on affairs with two men while overseas, one of whom is CNN war reporter Michael Ware.
• Sharapova shocker: Sometime-pitchwoman, sometime-fashion designer and sometime-tennis player, Maria Sharapova lost in the second round of Wimbledon today, to a fellow Russian ranked No. 154. After the match, Sharapova was muzzled to prevent her trademark screams from deafening everyone within a five-mile radius.
