OK, so the EU wants to enter the “nanny press” stage

In light of Muslim furor over provocative editorial cartoons, the EU is considering adopting a media code of conduct.

In an interview with Britain's Daily Telegraph, EU Justice and Security Commissioner Franco Frattini said the charter would encourage the media to show "prudence" when covering religion.

No, it would encourage them to STFU or risk government interference.

Now that we have that clear, I hope the same papers that have run most or all of the cartoons write long and loud against this bit of stupidity, or, rather, outright censorship.
