Nothing like the sweet stench of censorship. Well, their "news" sites won't get a whole lot of traffic from people wanting to actually acquire information on the Net.

Verdens største Britney

Den 20-årige popstjerne Britney Spears er verdens kendteste person, skriver det amerikanske Forbes Magazine i sin årlige liste over verdens mest magtfulde, rige og altså også kendte mennesker.

Madonna, eat your heart out! Kåringen af unge Spears baserer sig på en blanding af hendes formue og den medieopmærksomhed, hun tiltrækker.

Sidste år tjente Britney Spears 40 millioner dollar (ca. 308,5 millione kr.), og på hendes hjemmeside blev der registreret næsten en million søgninger.

Nr. 2 er golfstjernen Tiger Woods, 26, nr. 3 filminstruktøren Steven Spielberg, 55, nr. 4 Madonna, 43 (ups, den sved!), nr. 5 det irske rockband U2, 21, og dermed de eneste ikkeamerikanere på denne top 10, nr. 6 popkvintetten 'N Sync, 4, nr. 7 popsilden Mariah Carey, 32, nr. 8 talkshowværtinde Oprah Winfrey, 48, nr. 9 basketballlegenden Michael Jordan, 39, og endelig på tiendepladsen følger skuespilleren Tom Hanks, 45.

"The case was among the latest to challenge the Web's basic premise of encouraging the free flow of information through linking."

None of which, I believe, will ever diminish Dighton's ability to find obscure and off-the-wall websites to provide him with hilarious messages that are nevertheless completely on-point.

I salute the Master.

I'll second that salute. Dighton should be writing for SNL.

Judging by the last three headlines on the front page of this newspaper it seems they don't want to tarnish the image of Wonderful, Wonderful, Copenhagen.
