Donkeys used for Press Freedom

I just love this story from the BBC

Apparently two bloggers from Azerbaijan are facing up to five years in jail after posting a video of a donkey giving a news conference on YouTube.

The video was meant to be a satire on Press Freedom but as the Beeb reports

Shortly after the video was released, Andnan Hajizade and Emin Milli were held on hooliganism charges following a scuffle in a restaurant.
Their lawyer says the arrests were politically motivated.
