Saying he may have violated free speech rights, U.S. District Judge Jeffrey S. White reversed field Friday and lifted an injunction that had effectively shut down a website that publishes documents alleging corporate and government misdeeds, according to the LA Times. The judge acknowledged in court Friday that there were serious questions about whether his original order represented a "possible violation of the 1st Amendment."

The Bush appointee had previously assumed it was OK to shoot free speech first and ask questions later. No doubt the President's reaction was something like "Whitey, you're doin' a heckuva job!"
