What? No More Oprah?

Nothing is set in stone but the most famous daytime TV show in history could soon be coming to an end.

Former UK ambassador: CIA sent people to be ‘raped with broken bottles’

http://rawstory.com/2009/11/ambassador-cia-people-tortured/ The CIA relied on intelligence based on torture in prisons in Uzbekistan, a place where widespread torture practices include raping suspects with broken bottles and boiling them alive, says a former British ambassador to the central Asian country. Craig Murray, the rector of the University of Dundee in Scotland and until 2004 the UK's ambassador to Uzbekistan, said the CIA not only relied on confessions gleaned through extreme torture, it sent terror war suspects to Uzbekistan as part of its extraordinary rendition program.

ABC Considering Admitting the Obvious: Good Morning America Isn’t a News Show

Good Morning America was for years produced by ABC’s entertainment division, before people got all huffy about “journalism.” Now, as ABC contemplates what to do after Diane Sawyer departs for World News Tonight , it may be headed back. A source familiar with the discussions inside ABC tells Gawker that among the options Disney/ABC Television Group president Anne Sweeney is considering for GMA is returning some or all of the broadcast to the network’s entertainment division, a move that would simply formalize the de facto devolution of GMA —along with the other the morning newscasts—into a music-and-cooking show dressed up as a news broadcast.
