CBS News says it’s issuing takedown orders for a shelved “60 Minutes” segment after it was posted on Global TV’s app on Monday and then spread online.
A representative for the network says its Canadian broadcast partner had “mistakenly published” the segment, dubbed “Inside CECOT,” after CBS News decided to delay it for a future broadcast.
Though Global has since removed the episode, the segment has been shared widely on social media.

Not widely enough.

Even if they do eventually air it, it would be enlightening to play "spot the difference" between what they didn't want to air and what they finally do. My guess would be CBS doing something like

Apparently Weiss' problem with the piece in its current form is that they didn't interview Stephen Miller so he could tell viewers why it was all actually OK

I feel like the biggest problem in getting people to react to torture is that it's so unrelatable.
I think a lot of people hear "stress positions", "24 hour lights", "pitch blackness", and they think, 'Well I've been tired before. I've been stuck in a hot airplane with the lights too bright. I've been in the dark before, these are minor discomforts.'
And I don't think they understand that the point of all torture is to induce suffering. If the people doing this aren't slicing someone's body parts off with hot knives, it's because you can get the same effect by telling someone to kneel on the ground and not letting them up for a full day, but there's less mess.
It makes me really sad that I think people are often able to get away with torture because a key part of modern torture has been finding techniques that minimize visual signs of damage and have no similarity to things most people have experienced, and thus sound benign.
Not mentioned in all of this is that torture is -- to many people's surprise -- actually very damaging for torturers too. The prison guards at this place are probably at an extremely elevated risk of intimate partner violence and suicide.
Fuck all it, especially weak-ass complicity in this fascist bullshit.

Honestly one of the most torturous things I've ever heard of was "little ease" a prison cell in the tower of London. It is a cell too short to stand in and too narrow to lay down in. You cant stretch out in any way. As much as I love sleeping in the fetal position, the impossibility of it would drive me insane rather quickly. The only problem is that when I think of little ease, my mind simply goes to, "why didn't they make the floor at an angle?" And I'm like Jesus Christ, am I a horrible person for thinking of how they could make it worse? Yeah probably. But then I picture shoving musk in there and I feel better about myself.

Remember all the apologists who defended waterboarding?

Ironically, Archer handled it pretty well. He initially blew it off until he had to experience it for training, then he had a lot to say about how horrible it was, with a 1000-yard stare and everything. It was a little surprising, given how ridiculous the show usually is.

I mean, they get how loud (and bad) gunshots are for your ears.
And alligators…..
GreyEyedGhost@piefed.ca · 5 pts · 255d
They're a mixed bag on what they treat even semi-seriously. They keep using guns and complaining about hearing damage, but they never get ear protection. And also, a female driver is a chauffeuse.

17 years later, Sean Hannity still hasn't fulfilled his promise to be waterboarded for charity.

Can you blame people? We’ve had at minimum of 4 decades of Hollywood (over-)dramatization on what torture and espionage should look like. Who is to say that wasn’t done on purpose?

It's absolutely on purpose. There's even a term for it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copaganda

My father was recently a political prisoner. At 77 yo, he once was declared on liberty just to take him back after many hours standing waiting for his release, that never came. He said he was 20 hours standing, but the records only showed ~11 hours. Nevertheless, the next day I visited he had an audience but he couldn't stand. They put him in a wheelchair so he could attend. The audience was gonna be about his release that couldn't happen the day before, and the judge felt and stated the wheelchair thing could be a charade, because the records showed he was "only" 11 hours, tops, waiting for his release. His condition was bad, he barely slept. I had to pull him out of the wheelchair so he could pee, and months later he lost a toe, almost a foot, because his legs were failing to irrigate enough blood.
There was some equipment "failure" during the audience. It was suspended and the room was changed in the very moment. After the failure, it was resolved that my father had to stay in prison, because he still represented a danger to society, an activist with a career of 50 years. When I went to UNO, they told me that torture was absolutely difficult to prove, and prosecuting torture was basically a deadend in this case. They also completely drop interest in my father's case, and stop responding to my communications, they basically ghosted me. Torture was common in that prison, I met a man who went blind in four days. He's still there.

Not much we don't already know, but confirmation is important, spreading the information further is important, and the fact that it makes the administration mad is important.

is all this incompetence that's been happeing recent getting worse, is it planned,or just too hard to hide nowadays? it seems to be constant near weekly corporate incompetence in some form or another.
jrs100000@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 255d
Its sabotage. The leadership is incompetent, but they only make the rules. The people below them are the ones actually doing things.
stormeuh@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 255d
I suspect this is also why there are so many "mistakes" in how the epstein files were redacted and published. Incompetence as plausible deniability for leaking stuff that was ordered to be covered up.

“Between firing people who criticise Trump or refusing to acknowledge his mental decline, it’s clear that the people at the top of U.S. media are complicit in whitewashing the crimes of the Trump regime,” said media watchdog Kurt Oyj. “By contrast the people in charge of Canadian media are just, like, pretty checked out.”
