'Utne Reader' Showcases Greg and Will's Article in 'Free Inquiry' about Campus Censorship
In its January/February 2011 issue, the Utne Reader summarizes Greg and Will's recent article in Free Inquiry about campus censorship against speech that is socially conservative, critical of fundamental Islam, and/or mocks the campus' politically correct culture. Some examples of censorship mentioned in the Utne Reader article were Yale University's decision to remove images of Muhammad from a book about censorship of those very cartoons and New York University threatening to ban a discussion about the Muhammad cartoons.
We at FIRE thank the Utne Reader for shedding much-needed sunlight on these brazen violations of free speech.
