Under Regime Pressure, Iranian Daily To Change Its Logo

Circles close to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad are demanding that the Iranian daily Tehran-e Emrooz change its logo, which is in the form of a ballet dancer, symbolizing the cultural struggle against the regime.

The paper's manager announced that he did intend to change the logo.

It should be noted that the circulation of the paper was permitted several months ago, after it was shut down for insulting Ahmadinejad.
