Your Danish Cartoons Hangover Update

* Yale and Yale University Press will receive a letter today signed by multiple free speech organization castigating their decision to leave images of Muhammad out of a new book on the Danish Cartoon Controversy.

* the wires and various newspapers of more focused, local interest are hopping with news that Mickey Mouse Plot co-conspirator suspect Tahawwur Rana has strongly denied involvement with attacks on Mumbai in 2008. For what it's worth, the group that's taken responsibility for those attacks deny involvement with Rana.

* Mr. Friedman, nobody poured into any street.

* if the next European Muslim controversy is to be about architecture, I can't tell if this is a boost or a step down for the comics medium. But the Danish Cartoons Controversy is sure as heck going to be cited about 10 billion times.
