Dan Froomkin at the Washington Post probably has the best summary of the fallout over ABC's torture story Wednesday night that revealed the involvement of top administration officials.
So far, there are almost 300 stories on Google news.
He notes that a couple prominent lawyer bloggers say there can be no war crimes prosecutions in this country, in case you were wondering. Read it to find out why.
He also notes a large flaw in the ABC story related to the credibility of one of the detainees.
I've seen the whole thing discussed on numerous threads today, usually with the opinion that traditional media will likely not pick up on this story. Can't blame people for believing that, especially given ABC's flub, but it looks like it could have legs.
Teddy's making public noises, I expect there will be some move toward Congressional hearings.
I'm just gonna hang out now waiting for Charlie Rose's interview with George Soros.
P.S. Here's a petition asking for Condi's resignation because of her responsibility as chair of the committee. (Thanks, E.)
