'Bad Taste' video?

posted by [personal profile] panik at 07:28pm on 11/09/2006 under
There has been some muttering into beards about a BBC video - made for a journo's leaving do, but that's been put out on the net - described by Chris Doyle, director of the Council for Arab British Understanding,  as "insensitive, stereotypical and puerile," and now some at the BBC are getting all apologetic.

Well it made me laugh.

The news story's at: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=404630&in_page_id=1770
If you want to see it, go to the link 'watch the video' after the first par.

Too cool for subject

I thought it was pretty humorous. After all, it was just meant to be a going away vid.

Ack - I heard somebody getting all bent out of shape over this yesterday. We seem to have had a national humour-lobotomy. Bless!
