Wow, so she really was one of those who didn't just enjoy seeing a colleague imprisoned and tortured within an inch of his life, but who was part of the smear campaign that helped his torturers get hold of him. It doesn't surprise me at all that she would be a favourite at DN on UK politics. Their favourite on Libya was Gilbert Achcar, on Russiagate it was Marcy Wheeler, on Syria, Anand Gopal (or one of the favourites who parroted the establishment line anyway; there were a lot). Par for the course. They/Amy Goodman transitioned from radical to leftish-liberal some time ago, probably related to funding sources. They still do do some good stories and have some credible guests, but a lot less than they used to.
