The Times: Blogs abuzz with Bullard debate

The blogosphere is buzzing with comments about David Bullard, who the Sunday Times fired last week for a column deemed to be racist.

The Bullard saga has sparked fierce debate in cyberspace about racism, freedom of speech and censorship.

The Spike's Bullard burns at the stake and is accompanied by a graphic of the columnist being burnt in a fire by Elizabethan-looking pale men.

More.

NVDL: Think about it. During the last few weeks the temperature in South Africa has gone up quite a few notches as blacks and whites - often for good reason - have accused one another of racism. Interesting. And the pressure is mounting.
