Bloggers bypass gag order

Here's a couple of links to an interesting blog-legal development. Apparently there's a major political scandal underway in Canada (first I've heard of it here under my rock), and there's a gag order preventing the Canadian press for reporting much on it during the investigation. That order, however, has not prevented an American blogger from publishing information from what he considers to be a reliable (and leaky) source, nor has it prevented Canadians from discussing the issue on American-hosted blogs.

Check it out: Beat to Quarters, Part 1 and Part 2.
