Author Salman Rushdie, who lived for years under a death threat after his 1988 book "The Satanic Verses" drew the wrath of Iranian religious leaders, is defending the absolute right of free speech and the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Following a speech at the University of Vermont in Burlington, he was angered that, in the aftermath of the shootings, some from both the left and the right began to vilify the victims. He said some believe speech should be free, but it shouldn't upset anyone or go too far.
