Announcing a new contest: design a pro-democracy, pro-freedom of choice T-shirt. The catch is, you have to find the model.
And that is why there was a wave of international censorship after George W Bush appeared at the window of an Irish castle wearing a white undergarment, rather than his traditional shirt and tie.
It would be ridiculously easy to do this, which is why it’s apparently such a big deal that the Irish presidency issued a hastily written memo within minutes of the incident. Unfortunately, some images had already been transmitted by the host broadcaster – which I’m assuming was Irish network RTE.
From the description, it probably looked a little like this:
“These pictures are the property of the Irish presidency and must not be used for transmission by any service”
Someone, somewhere out there has this image. I wonder what fun they’re having with it.
