Bill Moyers Journal. Philippe Sands on Torture / Nurses on Healthcare
Description
When it comes to interrogation methods, does the end ever really justify the means? In this program, Bill Moyers interviews international law professor Philippe Sands, author of Torture Team: Rumsfeld’s Memo and the Betrayal of American Values, about his book on the approval of coercive interrogation by high-ranking U.S. officials. This edition of the Journal also reports on the fight the California Nurses Association has been waging for universal healthcare, their proposed answer to a medical system that covers some people better than others—and many not at all.
