The University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio is cancelling its subscription to the NYTimes because of the political brouhaha around that story on the government and financial institutions. Apparently the way to send a message to the stinky Times over their “irresponsible action (treason?)” is to make it so that no student on your campus can read it. Or perhaps we’re paraphrasing the Dean of Library Science.
Because censorship will make all the bad news go away!

  8. Heh. As a Trinity alum, I’ve been looking down my nose at Incarnate Word for some 20 years now. Nice to see all that snobbery wasn’t for naught.
