Tomato, torture, potato, enhanced interrogation techniques – let’s call the whole interview off

July 2, 2009 – 2:52 pm, by Tobias Ziegler

Yesterday I posted about language choices in the media and NPR Ombudsman Alison Shepard’s defence of not calling waterboarding by the ‘t’ word. It was also noted that Glenn Greenwald had been unsuccessful in securing an interview with Shepard. Today, Simon Owens of Bloggasm has let me know that he interviewed Greenwald about why he thinks Shepard should speak to him. It’s an interesting examination of when and how the media should open itself up to scrutiny.
