They became newsworthy after their initial publication, when they became the centre of a raging controversy and protests. At that point, most people reading about the cartoons would probably have appreciated their re-publication in whatever newspaper they read, in order to better understand what all the fuss was about. In that sense they were newsworthy.

I’m going to correct that “profit” blunder now too.

That cartoon was just plain offensive. It wasn’t newsworthy..what the hell does that mean anyway?

The Cartoons were not “offensive-yet-newsworthy”. They were just westerners trying to voice a legitimate opinion in an inflammatory way. Why didnt he write about that, instead of trying to step on toes and poke the muslim belief witha proverbial stick? Explain how a cartoon can ever be newsworthy!

For the record, and just in case someone important to me gets annoyed by this, I think that Geert Wilders is a fool and I don’t agree with his views in the slightest, obviously.
