Bro, Borat isn't the fucking media. Meaning his job isn't to provide whatever you consider to be equal time. He's making fun of the people in power right now. Last time anyone paid attention to him, he was making fun of the people in power.
Amazon and Hollywood and movies aren’t part of the media? Cohen doesn’t work in the medium of motion pictures? Media being the plural of medium? If you want to be semantic then maybe you should know what the fuck you’re talking about. I didn’t say he was a journalist.

He has no responsibility to be fair or balanced. But don’t act surprised when people call you out for implying that they’re being humorless because we used to laugh at people in power getting mocked when in fact it’s only ever one side being mocked. You’re so disingenuous but I think you believe what you’re saying so maybe you are genuine but just stupid.

There's no way he honestly believes this. He's just being a disingenuous little bitch.

They released it two days before the movie's release to drum up a bunch of press.
Yes, but are you honestly saying this clip wasnt chosen for the purpose of not only promoting the film but also smearing RG just as the laptop scandal hit?

I'm not surprised at the reaction here, but that's because some people here are just predictable. I do think there's a disparity there, but I don't think most people here are interested in why that is or what that really is, I think it's just base tribalism. I'm not implying that people are humorless, I'm saying it.

Back before they walled off the political threads for whatever fucking reason I used to debate over and over with people that this political shit was not analogous to religion, but I swear just sticking around here long enough might have been enough to convince me.

He's one of the most famous living American politicians and Borat got him to, allegedly, touch his dick on camera moments after coming onto some chick. In what world do you live in where this is not the obvious piece you put out to create buzz around your movie?

I'm still waiting for chaos chaos to explain what is "weird" about Giuliani and, more importantly, how being "weird" justifies an attempt to humiliate them and smear them as a pedophile.

how about this one time when Guliani dressed up in drag and Donald Trump touched his boobs



maybe you and the other big city liberal ivory tower cheese eating pansy ass electric car driving vegan surrender monkey degenerates on this forum dress up in drag but normal, God fearing christians who know they are going to heaven like myself do not

Sure, and if it was just that I would be 100% okay with it. It is the whole "shes only 15" fake ass bullshit that I am calling this movie out on. The ONLY reason they released this particular clip when they did was as a smear against RG. And once again...with out the whole "shes only 15" bullshit what is wrong with this clip? A 76 year old man thinks hes going to bang a hot young lady? No laws were broken, hes not married...tell me where is the "gotcha"? The only surprising thing about all this is that at 76 the old man is still ready to horn dog it up. Good on him.

I haven't seen the movie, but as described there's nothing wrong with the clip. Again, this is not a journalistic expose. This is a comedian who got a politician to touch his dick.I imagine we will find out, but "she's too old for you she's 15" is a very Borat thing to say. If you're looking at it through a political operative lens, which you are, you're focusing on all the wrong things.

Your issue is with The Guardian, not with Borat.

And just as an aside, I actually enjoyed the first Borat movie
Loved him in Ricky Bobby and Sweeny Todd
so its not RCB or Borat I object to.

TBH I laughed really hard at the "She's too old for you, she's 15!" line because that's classic Borat stuff. I wouldn't expect for Rudy to think she was 15 at the time, so it's whatever. Just some old dude tryna get some action. Probably not wise with a "russian journalist", but at his age you get what you can get.
