Teaching the overly sensitive Mr. Smith about the Streisand Effect....
The Telegraph on 31 January 2012:
The Australian Communications and Media Authority has confirmed to news.com.au that it is investigating a satirical interview by comedians John Clarke and Brian Dawe, which went to air at the end of ABC's 7.30 program on October 27 last year.
ABC has stood by the program and dismissed the investigation as "routine".
Perth school teacher Simon Smith told news.com.au he complained to ABC and the broadcasting watchdog after he saw the skit last year.
He objected to its portrayal of Christians.
"You can clearly see that they are vilifying Christians as insensitive, callous and uncaring with clear inferences to the Opposition front bench and Tony Abbott, many who are Catholics," he claimed.
"I just sat there for a minute and I thought, they've really overstepped the mark”.
