More news from NZ! Or at least, NZ tells American news… I thought you would be interested after that story you told me about Linda Ronstadt getting booed off the stage in Virginia, Carole - well, not only Virginia! The discussion in this article about freedom of speech is really interesting, and so important. I think at the very least Michael Moore’s done a real public service by inciting debate about this war,debate which was so strangely absent in the early days of the war as everyone rallied around the flag. For a country with such a strong and proud tradition of freedom of speech, that’s a real tragedy. (The article’s really from The Independent, an English newspaper, but republished in NZ)
