Help me now Eric ... Ralph Ginzburg, 1972 ... entered the Federal
penitentiary at Lewisburg, Pennsylvania for three years for publishing
"Eros". Federal authorities suppressed his publication after only four

I really liked his editorial: Dial-A-Hawk

But of course, that wasn't a journalist being sentenced to prison now was
