Aha!

From what I can see, a large part of the personalized rhetoric was aimed at the home audience, not the foreign one.
So is there a lesson to be learned there as well? Is home consumption strictly home consumption, and do we need to think deeply about what goes out across the airwaves, youtube, and liveleak? I'm trying to come up with a few Cold War analogies about perception vs. reality. That's what really started this idea.
