Is beautiful place ...

Some of world's greatest writers make visit. Not even call it "gulag" anymore:

Some former News of the World journalists said that former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks' promise that as many staff as possible would be redeployed is proving an empty gesture as the vast majority of the alternative jobs being discussed are either non-editorial or entail a move abroad.

Siberia is vacation spot. Also has latest in Soviet-style dissident housing ski resorts. Do not believe Capitalist propaganda. [/cheesy Russian accent]
