Here is the real story
Click the link to read the whole story about Erich "Mancow" Muller and his fake water boarding stunt. If I had to choose sides between Olbermann and Gawker, it would be Gawker for sure - on any issue.
He wasn't subjected to anything close to the conditions that actual waterboarding victims suffer, or, for that matter, that journalists like Christopher Hitchens who undertook the procedure suffered. He decided to get waterboarded, so he asked his publicist to find someone who knew nothing about it to look it up on the internet and do it to him. We say it all adds up to a fake—either by orchestration or half-assed laziness. The only reason that Olbermann—or anyone else for that matter—could come to a different conclusion is ideological fervor. This, according to Olbermann, is "changing the debate" on torture. |

I know almost nothing about this story, but if this is the future of Journalism, I might have chosen the wrong path in life.

Sounds like someone is taking an interest in Lindsay's health, if only for their own reasons. X17 reports that producers are making her take drug tests, keep a curfew and weight herself to keep a healthy weight.

How do you not know these things.
Really, how does someone get a job in a news paper and not understand what this ad was trying to say?

I don't know if it is torture, or if it is something we should be doing to suspected terrorists. What I do have questions about is if anyone would really submit to torture willingly.

This is a scary game....
The sad part, is that just like a nasty divorce, it isn't the people pushing the violence forward that will suffer the most. The ones who will suffer the most are the people or Korea, both North and South.
