Just wonderin', is all

I wonder why, in all the hoopla about how poor Hillary Clinton is being pushed out of the race because she's a poor defenseless fragile flower of a woman, there isn't a big feminist outcry about the Blogad for the finale of The Tudors that's running on all the big name blogs (you can see it at Digby's blog, for one). Because if there were ever a poster child for domestic violence, it's Henry VIII. Maybe it's just me, but this poster bothers me. It's the same "hot" image that's been running in ads the entire season, but the bodice-ripper-style photo of Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Henry with his hand firmly on Natalie Dormer's throat, taken in conjunction with what we know happens to Anne Boleyn in this Sunday's season finale, seems kind of like B&D porn to me. Is this an image that progressive blogs ought to be carrying?

Discuss.
