An organization that isn't the EU today didn't pass legislation that in any case wouldn't have made it illegal not to allow a right-to-reply on blogs.

That's just about the biggest story on the froth-blogs today. I did try to point out some of the facts in various comment boxes, but a bit like mating rabbits once you let them loose there's nothing you can really do to stop them until they get tired and move onto an even loonier story.

If you want more background information (you probably don't) I'll let
Nick Barlow and Harry explain the background.

ps There are rumours -- as yet unconfirmed-- that neither the BBC nor the Guardian are involved.
