Ivan, as I've said before, there is no CREDIT on the billboard. There is no way for a tourist to understand that this is some tv promotion - and, sorry, an anti-American one at that!

If I saw something like that about the British on the way to JFK airport, I'd be equally saddened and outraged. But we would never do that.

They're actually trying to promote American television programmes.

Get off it. For example, I have Family Guy on DVD and I know all the stereotypes that are promoted about the British in America; laughter is a result on your side of the pond.

The difference is, we can laugh about it too.
