This full-blown trend of fake news and "Punk'd" has found its ultimate expression in The Ali G Show. Sacha Baron Cohen delivers wicked commentary on how far people will allow themselves to be pushed and pulled by an idiot. While my husband is partial to "Borat," an anti-Semitic Kazakh journalist with totalitarian leanings, I'm in love with the title character Ali G, who is so obnoxiously obtuse and stupid that I writhe in pain for those subjected to his interviews. Believe it or not, I haven't seen any episodes with Bruno, the Austrian model and expert on all things fashionable.
Respek!
