As I just pointed out on the talk page -- this is no longer the Media of
the Day. It's a new day. There is new media.
So I think continuing to use Wikimedia-L to debate the *specifics* of this
case is not so great. Any comments on the *general* points made above, by
myself and a few others?

You could go to Talk:Main Page and say that there. The discussion is
quite active.
Argument from "I don't like it" in a forum-shopped venue, however,
really isn't convincing.
Who's arguing from "I don't like it"? Seems to me the entire purpose
of
putting this on the main page was "I really want people to be upset", which
in other contexts we call "trolling" - something that you've spoken out
about on numerous occasions.
