Big controversy over Little Red Book / "DHS visits student" story

UPDATE: Report confirmed as hoax, Link to BB update.

Librarians, reporters, and bloggers are today debating whether this story about a student visited by DHS agents over a famous book of Mao Tse-Tung quotes is real or hoax.

Standard-Times reporter Aaron Nicodemus, who filed the article, maintains it is "is real and factual to the extent [he] reported."

But Jessamyn West, an elected Councilor of the American Library Association, says "The jury is still out… parts of the newspaper story don't add up."
