History

Batman hasn't killed anybody, Morrie.

--Lana Lang  

Lana Lang is an overweight, middle-aged woman, and The Daily Planet's managing editor. She fiercely defends Batman's vigilantism and is one of his most outspoken supporter. She appeared in a series of TV debates in which she and others argue over his methods and influence.

Once was with an obnoxious critic named Morrie, who insinuated that Batman was a murderer and called him a de facto hero, Lana quickly corrected him, by telling him that Batman didn't kill anyone. Morrie then retracted his statement, somewhat, but still continued his belief that Batman was in fact a criminal.

Although not shown, it can be assumed that Lana share history with Clark Kent and is aware of both his and Bruce Wayne's secret identities.
