Nice tits?

The topless photos of the Duchess of Cambridge have created a furore - or have they?  The Editor of the Irish paper which published them made the point that "she's not our future Queen" and the same goes of course for France and Italy, the other two countries (so far) to have published them.  So is this just a British reaction - maybe over-reaction?  To most of the rest of the world's media she's just a celebrity, and as such is fair game for any story or picture which might boost sales.  I think Max Clifford made the most perceptive point when he said that the man with the camera and a long lens could equally well have been a man with a rifle and a telescopic sight, and that's what ought to be concerning us.
