>If it is true that >95% of protesters disapproved of the Nazi imagery, showing it on TV is unrepresentative and probably further personalizes a debate that is already sensitive by nature. It also encourages those who think this may be how to achieve 15 minutes of fame. On this basis, perhaps it is correct for media editors who railed about an anonymous Hitler attack on Bush to ignore it this time rather than playing it up. Sheesh, we all know not to reward children being naughty with extra attention and this isn't so different.

I must be old if I am the only one who remembers all of that? It was everywhere in the news and much more prolific than the current nonsense.
