Watching "Law and Order: Criminal Intent"--a doctor who helped to torture victims at Guantanamo is now confessing that applying those torture techniques to a patient turned him into a killer. From the mouths of cops: "torture changed him."

A sharp contrast to "Law & Order" shows a few years ago, which depicted anti-war journalists as cynical and unpatriotic manipulators, and Muslim families as oppressive and immoral.

A hopeful sign? Or just market forces at work?
