Should British born Aussies & permanent residnets take a class action against Ch 7 s David Koch for racism?

Question

Sunrise Ch 7 presenter David Koch is either a racist or a sore loser After a while Pom jokes wear thin (As do Aus jokes in UK). He will claim it is a joke but he doesnt say Lebbos or Nips or Slopes or Frogs or Krauts. Being one eyed is one thing but being a complete dork is another. I think Australia & UK actually respect each other

Answer 1

Who cares it's only david koch

Answer 2

I think we all should take a class action against Channel 7 for putting the fool on TV in the first place.

Answer 3

I haven't heard any racist comments!

Answer 4

Yes Koch is a rather lame.

But you are saying he was racist against his own race????

That just doesn't make sense. Koch is off the same race as poms regardless of nationality.

on the other hand some of the other examples you mentioned, those are racist because it's about another race.

Answer 5

any flak that goes that twats way is greatly appreciated

Answer 6

You obviously have no idea about how Aussies view poms I have been called one all my life even though I am more Aussie than most  and I would be insulted if my friends stopped its a term of endearment to me,

Answer 7

The racism has been appauling, they dont use the most common words for attacks on racial groups as you listed but every stereotype has been thrown at the chinese, uk, basically anyone who is winning and wasnt us, shame on channel 7

Answer 8

I am SO over this media beaten up rivalry. Its getting beyond a joke. The media are enjoying it - getting each countries heckles up. Making a simple comment sound like an attack using it to provoke counter attacks. Dead Sick of it.

I am thrilled for GB for doing so well, and the next moronic Australian to say they won it all in "sit down sports" have a look at our own medals. We've won ours in pretty much all the same sports. Swimming, Cycling, Rowing, Sailing... Well done for making us look like idiots.

Go the Aussies - and well done to all the winners. Every last English, American, Chinese, Russian, Jamaican, Canadian, Etc, Etc one of them!

Answer 9

Not for being racist, but definitely for being a Port Adelaide fan.  A much, much worse offence.  

Answer 10

lol at Kurt and Jigfam, from what I have heard, you could have said take an action against Channel 7 and just stopped there. Their Olympic coverage has supposedly been so shocking you could almost miss how bad David Koch has been:[)
