I have to say, I did not think that the injunction could withstand the blogger power which did not bow down to the pressure being applied to the mainstream media. The Guardian has got back some of its credibility as the guardian of free speech which has in the past wilted somewhat on exposing abuses of prisoners, and its not so Comment Is Free anymore.
