An unidentified news vendor in Tehran shows the last edition of the reformist
Farsi daily newspaper Bayan, right, which was banned Sunday, June 25, 2000
by Iran's hard-line judiciary. Bayan became the 19th newspaper ordered
to shut down in the past two months. The judiciary defended its media
crackdown as a way of upholding the country's Islamic principles.
