Update: Send a Letter to the Editor Demanding Accountability for Torture
April 17, 2008 01:48 PM

Despite President Bush's stunning admissions last Friday, the traditional media has largely ignored the news that specific torture techniques were approved and authorized by the highest levels of the Bush Administration.

Firedoglake has developed a tool to allow you to write a letter to the editor of your local papers demanding coverage of the ongoing torture scandal. You can find it at:

Only public outcry will convince Congress and the Attorney General to call for a special prosecutor to investigate the authorization of torture by the administration.
