"Here at Idea Channel, we thought we'd take this opportunity to talk in
this video not specifically about Sam Pepper, but about media in
general, and it's ability to comment on serious social issues. If Sam
Pepper's video successfully critiqued assault, then why all the uproar?
If media can be potentially hurtful, then how can we best comment on
social issues?"

PBS Idea Channel does it again - making the important point that
reproducing something you're trying to criticise and leaving the
criticism for later sends the wrong message to your audience.
