Beaten To The Punch
January 28, 2005
This week the ACLU released thousands of pages of Pentagon documents detailing further serious abuse of Iraqi prisoners by their American captors. The Army says it has aggressively investigated these allegations, but the ACLU believes that the documents suggest otherwise. Agree or disagree, you have to give ACLU credit for exhaustively pursuing the records. So exhaustively in fact, that Eric Umansky, who surveys the newspapers for Slate, marvels to Bob that “over the past month, the biggest scoops in the news business have come from…an organization that’s not in the news business.” Artist: Majorstuen, Track: Blue, Album: Jorun Jogga
