        Most likely, actually. This is like crank magnetism for the uncompassionate. It's a form of psychopathy. @demonshane @Rosie @nytimes

        I agree Lucy. It is a "type". You know it when you see it. And yes, psycho is a shoe that fits perfectly.

        And it's up to you as journalists to tell the American people how it's not helpful and actually makes it harder to get real info.

        Which means more than half say it's not, nor have most ever experienced it. Sen. McCain & others know. Also morally wrong

        For millions, the information source for the efficacy of torture is television drama.

        unreasonable to say torture is absolutely never useful. But it's absolutely never right, absolutely always wrong.
