The Times of Shreveport, Louisiana, announced this morning that the paper will drop Ann Coulter as a columnist. They are the fourth to drop her since last Friday when she called John Edwards a "faggot" and referred to his campaign manager, former U.S. Rep David Bonior, as a front for Arab terrorists. I doubt as if these small papers dropping her does much to hurt her income; she probably takes home more from one College Republicans speaking event than she does from ten newspapers. However, it's good see people drawing the line somewhere. If you live near Shreveport, send a note of support to The Times editors.
Update: The American Press of Lake Charles, LA, also has dropped Ann Coulter's column.
