I'm a Torturer. Are you?

Australian TV has broadcast 'new' images of Abu Ghraib.

The Guardian reports that the U.S. government has been pressuring U.S. news stations not to show the new footage, and, from my survey of websites, they're so far successful. The Times has no story on it yet at all.

While the Washington Post has a story on the Australian photos and video, the photos and video posted next to the story are the 'more tame' previously-released footage. The Post does not make this clear, so one could easily click on these photos, view them, and think: hmm, same old, same old. CNN has a small story on the photos, and also chooses a very tame selection to show.

When really, the new photos show people lying in pools of blood and smeared with shit.

Please be curious and visit the following sites to look at the pictures of what we did:

Guardian's photos
BBC's photos

(Unfortunately the original story's producer, SBS TV, appears overwhelmed with traffic, so it's very, very slow.)

Aren't we a great country?
