World's dirtiest comedian wants Facebook to censor mean jokes

I like Sacha Baron Cohen. By coincidence I've been showing clips from one of his movies, Talladega Nights, in recent episodes. In that movie, he plays a gay French race care driver competing against rednecks in NASCAR.

He plays all sorts of characters, from Ali G. the young, black Muslim character to Borat, his breakthrough persona for North American audiences. Cohen is Jewish himself, but Borat was antisemitic as a character, and he portrayed his home country of Kazakhstan in the same way.

On tonight's episode, we'll talk about how Cohen is now calling for censorship after giving a speech at the ADL.

NEXT: Andrew Lawton of True North joins me to talk about groups calling to quadruple the carbon tax.

FINALLY: Your messages to me!
