John Gaunt's case is an important test for freedom of speech
,----[ Quote ]
| I regret the chilling effect that will be
| felt in publishing and broadcasting even if
| Gaunt wins his case - and the prospect of
| him losing is an appalling prospect for
| those who cherish free speech in this
| country. So we here at Big Brother Watch
| are rooting for John today.
