Condi: "No, dear, you're wrong."
Let's hear it for YouTube and citizen journalism.
Thanks to Stanford students practicing journalism and asking about torture of prisoners, former Sec of State Condi Rice had a near meltdown moment ON VIDEO -- just before a campus dinner. She claimed she didn't authorize brutalizing prisoners, but just conveyed the authorization. Echoing Richard Nixon, she argued that if President Bush authorized it, then "by definition" it did not violate the Convention against Torture that our government has signed.
The video helped spark Stanford alumni from 1960s antiwar generation -- gathered for a campus reunion this weekend -- to publicly call for the prosecution or Rice, who is currently on Stanford's faculty.

You got censored
Steph M on Internet censorship in Australia:
What do a dentist, an owner of a dog kennel, a school cafeteria food provider and a US astrology site have in common? They all operate websites that have all fallen victim to Australia’s new Internet censorship laws.
Australia has joined the ranks of many countries that have decided to implement mandatory Internet censorship. The only problem is, their filtering system is far from perfect, and innocent people are having their businesses blocked under the new regulations.
