No, it was implied that they talked flags instead of content.

 

All I pointed out was that they commented on flags as an aside while waiting for the speech.  That would have occured regardless of who was PM.   As most people would when they turn up at such an event and they're looking at a podium and the back drop while waiting for the PM to arrive to give his speech.

Not so.

 

Mainstream media, news, smh, twitter with stupid flag hashtags. buzzfeed, all commented on it.

And it all started before he arrived for his speech.  As soon as he started speaking they covered his speech.
