Friday January 7: DEMOCRACY NOW!:
* Gonzales Grilled on Role in Torture at Confirmation Hearing *
Alberto Gonzales' role in paving the legal groundwork that led to the
torture of detainees in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay was the central
focus of a Senate hearing yesterday, which is considering his nomination
to succeed John Ashcroft as attorney general. Gonzales delivered more
than seven hours of testimony, most of it responding to questions from
Committee members on his role in setting the stage for the abuse of
detainees. We hear excerpts of the hearing and speak with journalist
Mark Danner of the New Yorker and author of Torture and Truth: America,
Abu Ghraib, and the War on Terror.
