SacBee applauded for requiring names with online comments

Sacramento Bee
Some readers, though, point out that anonymity allows those inside government institutions the freedom to post comments without fear of repercussions. As it requires posters to use real names, the Bee will stop its practice of online editors screening every comment. More editor/ombud columns:
> Rocky gets 37 cancellations over gay couples cover/See 6/25 image (RMN)
> Editors need to be careful when reporting Coulter/Maher banter (AJ-C)
> N&O's Page One editor defends publishing f-word used by Coulter (N&O)
> Express-News hears gripes about "unfair" Libby coverage, op-eds (E-N)
> "I've never seen the Orlando Sentinel dig into the Clintons" (Wrong!) (OS)
> NYT has used "excessive shorthand" when referring to Al Qaeda (NYT)
> Strib's summer interns gung-ho for even the mangiest assignment (Strib)
> Albany paper's accused of inciting threats of homicide, other sins (ATU)
> Howell returns from vacation to face mail about terrorism, war (WP)
> Missourian editor's head hurts from thinking too hard at retreat (CM)
