Washington Times Article on IWF Ad

	posted by Scott on Friday June 01, @02:57PM from the PC-censorship dept.
	Not PC sent me this editorial from the Washington Times. It outlines the controversy at UCLA for the printing of the Independent Women's Forum Ad which factually refutes feminist myths. Christie Scott's call for an apology and for "this to never happen again" is being well exposed as the oppressive PC-censorship that is really is. The article concludes: "In their obvious reluctance to joust, fact to fact, in a debate of ideas, campus feminists reveal not only their loathing for the First Amendment...but also their fear of it. Why else try to stifle someone else's freedom of speech, rather than more vigorously exercise one´s own?"

I am somewhat surprised, but nonetheless relieved, to see such a sensible editorial on the subject in the Washington Times.

Pit gender-feminist ideals against any hard-nosed reporter's First Amendment religion and, hopefully, the First Amendment will win out every time.

The UCLA ad was prominently mentioned. Visit early and often...
