In his recent DVD Sacha Baron Cohen takes Borat to America where he encourages Americans to sing "throw the Jew down the well" and speaks of Jews a devils and murderers.Sacha Baron Cohen is a Jew and has said that part of his comedy is showing just how much racism still exists in parts of America.
What do you think? Is the film more likely to encourage racism (encourage people to sing songs and tell anti Jewish jokes) or help to deal with it?

I think that he is very very funny, but can seem a bit racist at times.
But you have to think that he is only doing it for the money.

i think borat is funny, even though it's racist, and kazakstan's (however you spell it)tourism has gone up loads, because no-one had ever heard of it before the borat film.
