Link to December 22 Editor & Publisher post, "Idaho Lawmaker May Introduce Measure to Make People Use Real Names When Commenting ".

Excerpt:
Dave Neiwert, a former Times-News staffer from the 1980s and now a freelancer and blogger at Crooks and Liars, says "taking away that cover will remove valuable voices and important perspectives from the public dialogue."

You mean like the stuff you find here?

I agree with Mr. Neiwart but not for any high-falutin' reasons. Let people blather to their heart's content. It's the bloviators that provide Konservative Komedy Kavalcade with its best material.
