I think this is true only if you think that information is neutral,
irrespective of the form of presentation.  Why would I not want to put
my son's excellent academic record, or my beautiful and talented
daughter's photograph, on a notice on every telegraph pole in my
neighborhood?  I've nothing to be ashamed of, I'm a proud father, and
they're both adults, so why don't I just go ahead and do that?
