ABC comedy is again in trouble over taste after a new TV show featured star host John Safran acting out a sex scene to an image of US President Barack Obama.
'John Safran's Race Relations' shows the skit involving the presenter simulating a sex scene to an image of US President Barack Obama.

John Safran is Jewish (culturally - I don't believe he's particularly religious) and his work tends to involve attacking cultural taboos - yes, it's offensive at times in my view, but I'm wondering if the point of this sketch is one I might actually agree with - that Obama's views give comfort to certain anti-Jewish groups.
Obama must love this as it feeds his narcissistic supply.
Doesn’t sound flattering to me.
Oh boy, an Australian Bruno.

I’m sure CNN will “fact check” it and determine that the depiction was completely false.

Chris Mathews is jealous.
I see things in Australia have deteriorated to the same degree as in the U.S.
No, no, do not want to see Zero the Pretender’s pubes.
