Lisa Ling on Sister Laura: She’s ‘Really Anxious’ to Eat Fresh Food

TV journalist Lisa Ling, along with the husband of her newly freed sister Laura Ling, spoke candidly Wednesday about the condition of the journalists on their first day back home from North Korea.

Lisa Ling described her sister as being "exhausted," revealing what she's looking forward to: "She said she's really, really anxious to eat fresh fruit and fresh food. She was telling us how there were rocks in her rice…she's just anxious to eat fresh food. I know that there will be a sushi dinner at some point really soon."

Ling went on to praise her younger sister for her strength, expressing her deep sense of gratitude for her release: "My sister is an incredible journalist, and an incredibly smart woman, but to me she’s my little sister and so not being able to communicate with her, not being able to see her or talk to her on a regular basis, was devastating. So to be able to look into her eyes…was absolutely indescribable."
