Profiles In Cowardice



Shame, shame, shame on the Washington Post and all the other newspapers that chose to censor Berkeley Brethed's "Opus" comic strip this week.

Why'd they do it? Well, it mentions Islam! The last thing we want our newspapers to do is deal with timely and sensitive topics, you know! We all know that newspapers are dying a slow death. Let's hope it's a painful one, too.

I won't ramble on. Below, you'll find a link to Salon's editorial about the matter, as well as a link to the cartoon. I hope I've earned a fatwa for linking to it!
