Regarding a post last week, here a link to an article with some more good examples of self-censorship in the press:
Yikes he's right I DIDN'T know that Butz said such a bigotted inflammatory, dispicable thing (Christopher Hitchens- Slate.com). Hey I'm all for free un-PC speech because people who say things like this eventually will put their own foot-in-mouth or "shoot themselves in the foot". I had only previously heard of Butz as the guy (Sec. of Agriculture) who started us all down the path to being corn/petroleum consumers in the 70's (High Fructose Corn Syrup). I know its not nice to speak ill of the dead, but UGH, what a pig!
