in poor taste

The story was about TV cameras set up at Nelson Mandela's country home by news services, including Reuters, in anticipation of his passing away. Some say illegal but definitely in poor taste. Well, this is the cartoon comment I submitted that was deemed as, you guessed it, in poor taste. I respect my editor's veto powers and subsequently did a watered down version of the concept. I thought I would place the concept drawing here so you can judge for yourself. Political correctness and humour are in the eye of the reader. I thought it was funny.
