Crooked Timber: 'Revenge of the Snit'
Kieran Healey at Crooked Timber: "So when Newsweek publishes a story about the Koran being flushed away, its held responsible for riots in Afghanistan and Rumsfeld tells the press to watch what they say. When someone-- presumably a soldier or other coalition official-- leaks photos of Saddam in his underpants to the Sun, the President is confident that the photos will do nothing to provoke any backlash from insurgents. Now that's a flexible theory of media influence."
