Gotta love how much of character Shepard Fairey really turned out to be....wasn't there another artist USA could have honored?

Now that Shepard Fairey has been arrested for graffiti, don't you think you should take a closer look at all you honorees. The language of chef David Chang is not suitable for a character approved moniker.

So is it "Character Approved" or "Criminal Approved". Considering that Fairey's famous 'Hope' picture is a copyright infringement, what sort of values is USA Network honoring?
Now he has been arrested and charged with tagging property with graffiti. Is he what USA Network is trying to tell others to aspire to be? In his on video piece, he says that it is what he can get away with.
Makes me think the "Character Approved" is not something I would want anyone to be. Clearly he has no respect or concern for others or their property. Not virtues I would consider worthy of being honored. Shame on you USA Networks.

I am offended by Jimmy Wales comment about "old white men". We don't need more racist comments and the recent addition of racial epithets on Obama's entry shows how vacuous his vision is. How much disinformation lies in Wikipedia? Is this the type of knowledge we want to spread?

Ok... so your saying it's ok to plagerize and to use foul language? Wow, you need to reavaluate that list.
