    BBC News - Easyjet apologises for photoshoot at Holocaust memorial

    Easyjet has apologised after fashion photographs shot at the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin were published in its in-flight magazine.

    In the pictures, models pose in designer clothes among the concrete blocks of the "Field of Stelae".

    The budget airline says it was unaware of the images until they appeared in the magazine, which is published by a company called INK.

    Easyjet said that it was now reviewing its relationship with the publisher.

    Beyond stupid - But how did the photographs get taken? Cant imagine the memorial authorities giving permission. Which means the photographer is a sad, sick or thick individual who probably was not interested in the significance of the memorial just that the stones made a nice back drop to his "art"

    That is just plain wrong and offensive. That whole team of people involved in that should be fired

    Looks like a lot of people dropped the ball in a lot of places. Stupidity knows no bounds.

    'Oh yeah - like - those models look sooooo cool ....'

    I mean, it'd be funny if it weren't so utterly crass :mad:
