Danish 'cartoons editor' lives in fear after threats

The Danish editor responsible for publishing the cartoons that caused uproar last year among Muslims now has to take careful precautions every day, as do the cartoonists themselves. "I have received threats," says Flemming Rose, culture editor of Jyllands-Posten. On a visit to Britain, he travelled under an assumed name and in Spain was under constant security guard. But the cartoonists were initially forced to go into hiding, he says, having been unprepared for the political "minefield" they had stepped into. (Via Cnews)
