Disgusting, isn't it?

One would think he might have had the presence of mind to go take care of that sort of thing BEFORE he went in and sat down at the big table for the big meeting?

Is he SO self-absorbed that he doesn't even think ahead to that minimal consideration? Or is he just so accustomed to everyone bowing and scraping while he does whatever he wants - to bother with decorum or common courtesy?

Well, considering his mom's penchant for common courtesy, I can understand why the little dauphin never learned this. So he's got his nanny there and has to check with her, 'eh?

I thought this was bogus until I saw that Editor & Publisher had picked this up. And Reuters swears by its authenticity. Whoa! Wonder what else is out there? Of course, NOW, you're liable to have all kinds of photographers with their eyes peeled for another one of those "gotcha" moments. The pile-on is upon us. Same thing for "Go Fuck Yourself, mr. cheney." I bet there are all kinds of guerrilla gonzos out there, even now, plotting for their own media moment when they might be able to pull that stunt, too. From the "Bring 'em on" file, I guess you'd say, but human nature being what it is, I think it can be expected in the future. I believe the perception now is - "Tough shit. These guys are asking for it."
