I can't wait to see Zero Dark Thirty
After the CIA reviews it for accuracy we should be able to see it. I know we are all impatient but dammit accuracy is important! We simply must give the CIA analysts time to review the record so the film reflects the actual record.
Whoops. My bad. Evidently the only scenario that qualifies for delay is when the real world record of the torture program is at stake. If we are talking about greenlighting propaganda then there are no delays or arguments.
How sick is it that a Hollywood depiction of the torture program receives CIA and Pentagon cooperation but when it comes to a non fiction accounting of the torture program secrecy always takes precedent over the necessity of an informed public. What a disgrace.
