Sacha Baron Cohen’s ‘Who Is America’ Season Ends Without Airing Sarah Palin Segment
Breitbart ^ | 27 Aug 2018 | Ben Kew

Posted on 08/28/2018 6:19:05 AM PDT by KC_Lion

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Palin’s interview did not make the final cut of the show, which also features segments with O.J. Simpson and former Democratic congressman Barney Frank.

Such a decision was hinted at by Showtime president of programming Gary Levine earlier this month after he said that Cohen has a “very high bar” for what makes the final cut.

....

News that Palin may be involved in the show emerged last month after she revealed that Cohen had duped her by posing as a disabled veteran eager to discuss issues facing the country.

“Cohen pretended to be a disabled veteran from Kentucky who was a big fan of Governor Palin,” a source close to Palin told Breitbart News at the time. “He was wearing a necklace made of bullets and had a laptop covered in InfoWars stickers.”

“His disguise was basically a caricature of a conservative middle-class Trump voter,” they continued. “He was asking her absurd, racist, homophobic, and sexist questions that were all meant to mock Trump voters as a bunch of ignorant and offensive kooks.”

What a putz.

Didn't have any material he could use and just ends up looking like a complete horse's ass who slinked away when he got caught.

How typical.

Les Moonves should be fired for this show. And for locking girls in his office and offering them acting jobs if they let him take their clothes off.

Ping to Sarah's Amazing List.

“Cohen pretended to be a disabled veteran from Kentucky who was a big fan of Governor Palin,” a source close to Palin told Breitbart News at the time. “He was wearing a necklace made of bullets and had a laptop covered in InfoWars stickers.”

Borat is the lowest of the low.

If no one watched it, did it really air?

“Eventually, Sarah Palin walked away from the interview after Cohen asked her a “horrible” question about whether Chelsea Clinton had been subject to a government-funded sex change.”

This is a very sad example of what entertainment is supposed to be these days.

The show was a complete and total dog. May he scurry back to England and punk Theresa May instead of our Divine Sarah.

“Borat can’t handle this much American woman.”

Neither could John McCain for that matter.

I never saw that one, KC!

I well remember when some ladies here had a meltdown at that photo. I think they’ve left FR - I never see them anymore.

Or Steve Schmidt for that matter.

Or Nicole Wallace who looked like a drab old shoe next to Sarah.

Sufficiently crossing the line of stolen valor to keep him from airing it? Or just too nasty on his part to want it to be seen?

Good questions, the answer is "Yes"
