The state employees’ union isn’t the only outfit decrying the Kentucky state government’s ban on a handful of blogs, most of which appear to be critical of the state’s governor, Ernie Fletcher.
Rep. Ben Chandler (D-KY), whose district includes the state capitol, has just come out firmly against the policy. “I believe the recent action of the Fletcher administration to block access to a handpicked number of blogs is a violation of the equal protection clause of the Constitution,” Chandler said through a spokeswoman. “This flies in the face of a fundamental right of free speech.”
You heard it here first, folks! (Unless you work for the state of Kentucky.)
