Quick, someone tell Heather

Controversial Danish cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad have been reprinted in a U.S. magazine with commentary by leading U.S. cartoonist Art Spiegelman, who offers what he calls a “fatwa bomb meter” to rate their offensiveness.

Harper’s Magazine published the article by Spiegelman in its June edition available on newsstands from Tuesday, joining only a handful of U.S. outlets which have printed the cartoons which provoked furious protests that killed 50 people.

After Chapters idiotically pulled the Western Standard from the magazine shelves of every one of its stores for running the actual Danish cartoons rather than a description, it will be interesting to see how they do with Harpers doing the same thing.
