Quotation of the Day for February 4, 2010



"I think that [the filmmakers] probably were somewhat unaware of the context of the footage."

- Ira Nadel, professor of English at the University of British Columbia, on the use of clips from the film Olympia in a promotional video for the 2010 Winter Olympics torch relay. Clips from Olympia, which documents the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games, were edited to obscure its connection to the Nazis.
