Last night “60 Minutes” did a piece on the Denmark cartoon crisis — but didn’t show the cartoons. Now, I had a three year old girl demanding I tickle her during part of the segment, so maybe I missed it, but I don’t think they even explained why they weren’t showing the audience the pictures. This is a perfect illustration of my objection that the cartoon are news. The “solidarity” argument for publishing them is far weaker than the simple journalistic one.
