Cox and Forkum (cartoon right) have updates on yesterday's Congressional hearing in which Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft and Cisco Systems explained why they've been helping China to suppress dissent.Republican Rep. Jim Leach suggested that Google had apparently acted "as a functionary of the Chinese government."Meanwhile, our favourite cartoon site also links to a NY Times story that suggests "perhaps the tide is turning against censorship in China: Beijing Censors Taken to Task in Party Circles ."
"This is astonishing," Leach said.
