Preview The Least Worst Place: Guantanamo's First 100 Days

Description:
In an attempt to look beyond the camera flashes, sound bits, and video clips, Karen Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place covers the oft forgotten humanity of Guantanamo Bay. The senualization of the words: "torture", "terrorists" and "enemy combatants" gives way to a compelling tale of how our service men and women found themselves torn between righteous codes of conduct and initiatives from higher ups. Similar to David Halberstam's "The Children", Karen Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place" focuses on the characters and their personal journeys to tell the story beyond newspaper headlines and evening broadcasts. An edgy and sharp piece of writing, Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place" brilliantly explores the "how" and "why" of Guantanamo, leaving the "when", "what", and "where" to less experienced media stations.
