"robbo's piece had been up since the 80's, it was an institution". -Bullshit. They constantly show Robbo's piece when it was all new and pristine. Only once do they show it just prior to banksy's work and it was hardly legible any more.
Team Banksy!
I think the point that they were trying to make was that Banksy used Robbo's old piece in the new piece. Also, other artists tagging over the old piece is standard, the impressive part was that no one had completely painted over the piece before Banksy.
