A record number of people have complained after a French TV presenter posted a spoof ad on a gay dating website and made fun of people who responded live on air. Cyril Hanouna used a feminine tone of voice and tricked those he spoke to into revealing their sexual fantasies. One of the victims was left in a "state of appalling distress", LGBT campaigners said. They accused the presenter of homophobia. Nearly 20,000 complaints about the segment on Mr Hanouna's nightly show Touche pas à mon poste (TPMP - "Don't touch my TV" in English) had been made to the media regulator by Monday afternoon, reports said. Mr Hanouna had posed online as a bisexual man called Jean-José who was "very sporty and well endowed" and "liked being insulted", Ouest France newspaper reported. He engaged in suggestive chat with the men who responded as guests, a studio audience and more than a million viewers watched.
Nicolas Noguier of Le Refuge, an association that works with young victims of homophobia, wrote on Facebook that one hotline operator had spent most of the night talking to one of the men Mr Hanouna deceived. "We were devastated by his tears and his fear of being found out by his parents and those around him," Mr Noguier said. Joël Deumier, president of SOS Homophobie said the segment was "scandalous, shameful and homophobic". "When you let people get away with behaviour like this, you trivialise homophobic discourse. The sketch was deeply homophobic," he said, quoted by the Gay Times.
Mr Hanouna said on Friday that he felt "hurt" by allegations of homophobia and said it was "everything he had been fighting against for years and the opposite of TPMP".

What was that quote; you know who your masters are when you know who you are not allowed to ridicule?
Voltaire: To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.

homosexuals are distressed by being revealed in this way, because at some deep inner level, they know their urges and subsequent behavior are disordered and wrong.
No one can humiliate you unless you have first humiliated yourself.
Gosh, I really don’t like that pic.
If you can elaborate on its provenance, meaning, and usefulness to this conversation, I would appreciate it.
There may be a great reason that doesn’t amount to anti-Semitism.
This org, founder and supported White movement are noted as domestic terrorist threats.
From their About Us page:
“This online magazine, nationalvanguard.org, was founded by Kevin Alfred Strom in 2003.
Assisted by staffers and volunteers on four continents, he continues his editorship today.
It is the flagship publication supporting the reconstituted National Alliance headed by William White Williams, the leading organization advocating for the interests of men and women of European descent worldwide.”
Unfortunately, though that quotation is usually misattributed to Voltaire, it was actually coined by Strom, who is a white supremacist. It is inseparable from anti-Semitism.
He doesn’t appear to have a phobia since he was on air having fun asking them questions.
Spoof the poof? Off with his head.
But it’s true!
if you let out the tiniest little peep against the most secular, left-wing, American hating Jew in the world..?
you get 1000 people screaming at you that you’re a Nazi.
For a long time I attributed that quotation to Voltaire. There is truth in the statement.
When looking for a graphic of it to post, I found this one and the claim that the quote did NOT originate with Voltaire. So, I posted the graphic without really studying it or the link to it. Again without reading further on the website.
Very unwise of me!
While the graphic & website may be anti-Semitic, the truth of the statement is almost universal in application to rulers of various demographics. A cursory examination of today’s PC public discourse demonstrates this.
I apologize if I’ve offended by posting this. I am DEFINITELY NOT anti-Semitic - I owe everything to a Jewish Man who once worked as a Carpenter!
‘Guess he thinks this is 4chan/pol/.
