It's Good to be the Crown Prince
A Spanish judge has ordered authorities to seize a copy of the satirical magazine El Jueves. The front cover shows a cartoon of Crown Prince Felipe in bed with his wife Princess Letizia that mocks government efforts to boost the nation's birth rate by giving couples money for each child born or adopted. The judge said the cartoon "could damage the prestige of the Crown." He has also ordered the magazine to give him the names of cartoonists.
