Would you all help me keep "CBS 60 Minutes" info bumped to the top or maybe start a separate thread for this information?


I'll see if I can find more telephone numbers, addresses and emails of other willing participants of this outrage.

'Washington Post' Publishes Only a Few of Its Many Iraq-Prison Photos

May 11, 2004

NEW YORK Despite having more than 1,000 photos taken by American soldiers of life in and around the abuse-filled Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, The Washington Post has published just 10 depicting alleged mistreatment of prisoners due to concerns over incomplete information about the pictures and the "dignity of those [who are naked] in the photos," said Executive Editor Leonard Downie, Jr.

"It is only a fraction of the photos that show abuse," Downie told E&P. "Out of those, we have only published photos in which we knew what was going on in the picture. We have other photos of people with injuries and we did not know what those injuries were. We had no idea if the injuries were from abuse or not, who they are, or how the injury occurred."

Downie also praised the cooperation among many newspapers and magazines covering the story, such as The New York Times and The New Yorker, for sharing the images and offering credit where deserved.

I wrote to CBS when they first released the pictures and told them that there was ABSOLUTELY NO REASON to release these porn photos "INTO MY HOME" except for shock value and political points for the Dems.

I also asked them "If you had pictures of Clinton and Monica in a compromising position, would you have broadcast them?"
