Claudia Rosett in her pajamas…

… with the first Pajamas Media Special Report. She begins: Greetings, and a quick tip: Anyone in favor of censorship and internet taxes can skip the rest of this column.

OK. For those still with me, who probably agree it is not a good idea to have Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe editing your blog and then charging you for it…

Who wouldn’t want to read the rest?

UPDATE: PJM will be holding an international blogjam on the question of who controls the Internet in the next few days. This should be of special interest to bloggers who are, of course, directly affected by this.

Terrific article; be sure to click through to the NRO piece on the Case of the Missing Mercedes, which is funny and serious at the same time.

The Wall Street Journal’s editorial page noted a few years back that the real purpose of the Global Warming hype was not to cut back on carbon dioxide emissions, but to raise taxes. Looks like Kofi’s trying the same gambit; we have to regulate the internet and therefore we should be able to tax it.
