When radio personality Michael Savage was banned from entering England it was grist for front and editorial page alike. The story was big enough that National Public Radio invited Savage on air to discuss the issue. Media Matters, while extolling freedom of speech, in a round about way thought Savage had it coming. Now former Weatherman terrorist and good friend of Barack Obama, Bill Ayers has been refused entry into Canada and the media silence is deafening. To be sure Canadian academia is outraged but the mainstream media has ignored the flap. No news is good news or "you don't need a weatherman to know which way the blows."
