There is a big flap about Hartford Courant, a newspaper in my neck of the woods (Connecticut) asking its travel editor to stop publishing his weblog.

Denish Horgan's politics seems to be the polar opposite of Courant's. Courant also recently changed his position from the position of a columnist to that of the travel editor. So the editor's argument doesn't really wash since the kind of opinion he expresses in his weblog is no longer published in the paper anyway. This action really shuts him up for good. Sad.

Cosmo Macero has interesting observations on the subject.
