Author, Yale Press Director Weigh In on Decision Not to Publish Controversial Cartoons [incl. Jytte Klausen]

The magazine also asked people including Fareed Zakaria, ofNewsweek, Cary Nelson, president of the American Association of University Professors, and John Donatich, director of the Yale University Press, to share their thoughts about the press’s hotly debated decision not to publish a Danish newspaper’s cartoons and other images of the Prophet Muhammad in Ms. Klausen’s book.
