     COMMENTS: Lisa Tries to Help Sister Laura

Lisa Ling, the National Geographic Explorer anchor who used to work at ABC-TV on The View, returned to her old network to publicize the plight of her sister Laura Ling. Laura, a TV reporter for the Current cable channel, has been taken prisoner by North Korea with her colleague Euna Lee. Lisa explained they were working on a documentary on the sexual trafficking of prostitutes across the China-North Korea border. Now Ling and Lee are about to stand trial. Lisa went to Bob Woodruff on ABC's Nightline to relay her sister's message to Pyongyang: "If at any point they crossed into North Korean territory then we apologize profusely on their behalf." Lisa described talking to Laura last week by telephone: "They are absolutely terrified. That I can tell you for sure."
