I love it when someone like your good self explains the very reasons why such an act is being regarded as vile.
It is precisely as you say: the gesture was an act of complete contempt, and designed soley around getting it caught on camera.
does anyoen know WHEN this happened. I wouldn't be surprised if it was AFTER the family nominations when Jem thought she was some sort of goddam heroine (maybe HERO would be more suited, given her Amazonian looks and behaviour)
