"Looks like some guy named Steve Jobs was able to nudge my app past the gatekeepers"

That was from political cartoonist Mark Fiore, via Wired.com.

Fiore’s NewsToons app was rejected by Apple in December, four months before he won the top journalism prize for his animated, politically themed cartoons. Apple rejected the app, citing rules against making fun of public figures.

Steve Jobs reportedly called that a mistake in an e-mail response to a user, and Fiore said Apple called him last Thursday asking him to re-submit his app, after news of the ban richocheted around the web.

In related news, Steve Jobs doesn't want to sell porn and says get an Android instead.

“You know, there’s a porn store for Android,” Jobs said. “You can download nothing but porn. You can download porn, your kids can download porn. That’s a place we don’t want to go, so we’re not going to go there.”

All I can say, without implying I read porn, is "Hurrah for free markets!"

Oh, and "Hurrah for free speech!"
