Borat and the culture of insensitivity

The leading movie at the box office for the past two weeks has been "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan." starring so-called comedian Sasha Baron Cohen. While I have not seen the movie (it hasn't made it to Grenada's miniscule megaplex!!), it has become apparent that Mr. Cohen managed to create his comedy by demeaning and belittling various people groups. Many of those who have become the unwitting targets of Borat's mock-umentary are now sueing both him and the film distributor who both look to cash in on the strength of multi-millions earned at the box office.
I hope the offended partys win and win big. There is no humor more tasteless than cruelty, and Mr. Cohen should have to reap some of what he has sown.
