Creators To Appear In Court Today As Spanish Cartoon Crisis Moves Forward

If you haven't read any of the articles about cartoonist Guillermo and writer Manuel Font de Vila appearing in court today for their cover for the magazine El Jueves, you might try Metabunker's fine write-up. You also might bookmark Daryl Cagle's web site and go there for updates, or one of the links recommended at Metabunker. The cover created by the pair showed two members of the Royal Family having sex as part of a commentary on the idleness of royalty and a new government payment to couples having children. It has not only caused alarm in free speech circles around the globe, but a lot of people in Spain are fairly stunned such an issue has come up in their country in this day and age.
