Furthermore, the couple's website is BANNED IN PAKISTAN.
Hmmm? I hope my humble Blog is so honored.
Also interesting is the fact that the television station showed all twelve of the "evil" Mohammed Cartoons.

We now have the video for you of the recent news coverage of Plus Ultra’s ban in Pakistan on KATU-TV (ABC affiliate) in Portland, Oregon. The amazing thing about this video is that KATU actually had the nerve to show all 12 of the controversial Danish Mohammed cartoons - something no other news channel has been willing to do.They also talk about the ban on the magazine Free Inquiry at Borders, and the fact that Powell’s City of Books in Portland has made a firm stand to carry it.

And here you can watch some of the promos they ran for the story, where they got really good shots of the cartoons. The story, and the promos, were played repeatedly throughout the night and the following morning for the 11 0′clock p.m. and Sunday morning editions.
