EXCLUSIVE by The Bangkok Bugle
Industry sources have confirmed The Economist will shortly be sending 'cease and desist' letters to Thai language websites and publications that have reproduced direct translations of the recent highly controversial stories that lead to the publication not appearing in Thailand and website versions being censored.
The Economist places great value on its content, and Thai language syndication rights are, I understand, currently the subject of negotiations with at least one publishing company.
It remains to be seen whether the company will take further action if the 'offending' material is not removed.
