Least suprising headline today: Saudis ban magazine

And it's not Playboy....


Cover of the October 2003 edition of National Geographic featuring an in-depth look at the people of Saudi Arabia. The government of Saudi Arabia apparently doesn't like being the cover feature on National Geographic magazine. Editors of National Geographic said they had been informed by their Middle East distributor that the October issue was banned by the Saudi government. No reason was given for the ban, but that issue carries a lengthy story on the kingdom.
