BTW, I've been studying the subject a lot so I admit I might be jumping at shadows. However, I think the study above is valid. It's up to you to decide if this example falls into that process.

Take a look at this. 1. Select a target – Art work X or creator Y should be delegitimised on moral grounds. 2. Establish grounds - Imply a link (factual, inferred or fabricated) between creator Y and negative attribute/action Z. Spread this link as widely as possible. 3. Appeal to ethos – Say...

Music critic gets a platform on PBS to call for the censorship of music. Hit that "like/dislike" button to show her how you feel. I would say "add a comment" but - strangely - the comments function is disabled. Hmmm....

That's cool. I hadn't heard about that. :)

3rd issue to be called Maltese for "Press", by any chance? :)

Nice piece. If any of you like this style then I'd recommend looking up the CoBrA artists (including Karel Appel, Jean Dubuffet, Asger Jorn and Constant).
