Oxford University Press bans use of pig, sausage or pork-related words to avoid offending Muslims - Telegraph

Oxford University Press bans use of pig, sausage or pork-related words to avoid offending Muslims - Telegraph:

"The Oxford University Press has warned its writers not to mention pigs, sausages or pork-related words in children's books, in an apparent bid to avoid offending Jews and Muslims.
The existence of the publisher's guidelines emerged after a radio discussion on free speech in the wake of the Paris attacks."


A discussion involving free speech ended with the banning of words?
