https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-45429509 Again - how do these people fall for him? Don’t they check out those asking for interviews before they agree? I don’t know what Baron Cohen does to pull his victims into his bubble, but he must seem pretty compelling. Has he inherited Steve Jobs’ Reality Distortion Field? Frankly, the things he gets people to do should ring alarm bells. With some they do, with some there’s a partial inkling that all is not right but they continue, and with others they carry on to the point that the police turn up. The fact that he’s been able to do this since the Ali-G days tells me that (a) He’s bloody good at it, and (b) People are easily duped. |

I've not watched much of his stuff more recently - I watched the Ali G series, the film and the Borat film, and that's it but even then I was amazed at his ability to fool people. I wonder if there's a lack of vetting going on at some stage. Surely, someone along the way has to research the visitors. I know for presidential candidates, there will be some sort of security process. No idea if it's true for Senate candidates. |

Been doing some reading about this today - it’s as I thought - but the onus is on the “marks” to verify that they are who they say they are.

The hope is that people will just fall for it, and maybe not be so keen to check stuff out. Actually, it seems pretty straight forward, really. In a way, it’s important television. People in power get caught out. Should we congratulate Baron Cohen for rooting out the easily lead and the gullible? |

Sascha told him to attack him with his bare arse! Common sense would tell you not to do that and if you don't have common sense then you deserve everything you get. These people have such inflated egos they don't even think any more. I hope the case gets to court so the judge gets to tell the sentator what a twat he is. |
