Journalist Nir Rosen, left, posted disparaging remarks on his Twitter account against CBS News reporter Lara Logan, right, who was the victim of a brutal sexual assault covering events in Cairo, Egypt.

Nir Rosen, who has contributed to Time, Atlantic Monthly, the Washington Post, New York Times Magazine and Harper’s, resigned from the university’s Center on Law and Security after trashing Logan publicly on Twitter.

Logan, a “60 Minutes” correspondent, suffered a “brutal and sustained sexual assault by a mob of men while covering the Egyptian uprising,” CBS News said. The New York Post reports the thugs were chanting, “Jew! Jew!” during the incident. Logan was eventually rescued by a group of women and some 20 Egyptian soldiers. According to TMZ.com, she is now resting at her Washington, D.C.-area home, and told a friend she was looking to return to work “within weeks.”

The first tweet by Rosen stated, “Lara Logan had to outdo Anderson. Where was her buddy McCrystal.”

Rosen then continued by saying he’s be amused if CNN’s Anderson Cooper, was reportedly punched in the head several times during his own coverage of the recent turmoil in Egypt, had also been sexually assaulted.

“Yes yes its wrong what happened to her. Of course. I don’t support that. But, it would have been funny if it happened to Anderson too,” wrote Rosen.
