I cant believe some black comedians are taking Ali g the wrong way and am especially surprised with Richard Blackwood. I thought he was a bit more clued up then that or maybe he's just agreeing with his peer's.
I think the ALI G character is based on middle class anglo asian boy racers. I have a few friends who fit this description and none of them take offence. I also know black peaple from all walks of life who love t Ali G and havent met one who has taken offence.
As for the Borat issue ! How many of us had even heard of Kazakhstan ? Borat has truly put it on the world map . They should be thanking him.
Big up Sacha Baron Cohen. RESPEC !!
