This reminds me of how Swedish Trade and Industry organisation and their research department handled one of their researcher after she'd presented a report in 2011 about how privatisation of welfare didn't result in more efficiency. They sacked her.

Um, that wasn't the "research" we were looking for.

How about updating this in light of Mr. Glasner's retraction, as even Krugman and DeLong have done? Or is "suppressing" only bad when(supposedly) done by others whose ideas you don't like?

Oops. Running behind and didn't catch that. Sorry.

I fixed the post to reflect this.
