The report I read said that she paid the fine after one night in jail. I can't help being a bit disappointed by that, if it's true, because she'd seemed so determined not to. However another article I read (http://english.aljazeera.net/news/africa/2009/09/200998152754685257.html) said that the journalist's union paid it on her behalf. I can't help hoping that's the case because I do respect her hugely for standing up for her beliefs.
