Ernest Miller says,
A couple of days ago BoingBoing posted a story about the harrassment Jeremy Wright, who is Canadian, faced when he told US Immigration officials that he was a blogger. Although it is unclear why he was treated so poorly by US government officials, one possible explanation is that, as a blogger, he is also a journalists. Journalists, even from friendly countries, are required to have special “I Visas” that normal tourists are not required to have. Journalists without these visas have beeen similarly harrassed. Maybe we ought to change that law.
