yoda Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Ok he is clearly racist based on both the video clip and news article. It is interesting to see the comments on that article page where people seem to think what he said was what most Nz-landers wanted to say but were afraid to. For some reason I thought Nz-landers weren't as bigoted as the Aussies, guess I was wrong.
Texy Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 n an interview with Prime Minister John Key, Henry asked if Sir Anand was "even a New Zealander". Henry then asked Key about his next choice of Governor-General: "Are you going to choose a New Zealander who looks and sounds like a New Zealander this time? Are we going to go for someone who is more like a New Zealander this time?" ^^^^ This part clearly highlights what a racist *****hole this DIP sh!t actually is in before Sree_India defends this guy
EnterTheVoid Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Hopefully, they boot a few others like him from some Australian breakfast shows that come to mind.
Manny_Pacquiao Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 all of you dickshits that are getting offended need to stop getting angry and take a look at this situation properly people in the west will always find foreign names funny. thats because they sound funny. are u telling me u dont chuckle when you read out the delhi minister's name? come on... i dont think u can blame them for that. do they intend to be racist? no, they just find the name funny. the same thing happens to chinese ppl too. some asians have the right idea and they understand this for what it is. thats why its common to see asian ppl keeping their native names and also using an english name. indians get english nicknames too. i think u dickshit indian ppl living abroad need to start doing the same. stop introducing yourselves as akshit and hardik and mrityanandarajan and get yourselves some real names.

This fellow has a history of being an attention whoare, he's gotten trouble for similar misdemeanors --- This has nothing to do with different cultures and their naming.

Did you even read that article Rajiv posted? It has nothing to do with names, rather how the guy looked. Guess you will ask us to do plastic surgery now to look like a Gora.
yoda Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 ..just one guy' date=' not the entire nation. Did you see the other hosts who were feeling uncomfortable[/quote'] Did you read the comments section on the article you posted? There are a whole host of people who agree with him. Regarding the video itself, the woman seemed uncomfortable, the other guy seemed to find it funny. Also the video itself isn't a big deal except when he refers to Indians in general, the article you posted and the reader's comments are much worse.

Also the video itself isn't a big deal except when he refers to Indians in general, the article you posted and the reader's comments are much worse. Blah Blah Blah The guy is a tool and as in everywhere, some people support him, some don't. Here, read this. The guy is a ****ing attention seeking pest. In March 2009, Henry caused offence by pointing out the facial hair of female guest anti-nuclear campaigner and Greenpeace worker Stephanie Mills.[5] TVNZ received a "handful" of complaints to which Henry was unrepentant stating "I certainly have no intention of apologising to people who have written in and complained. The key thing to me is what a fortunate life they must have that they can afford time and energy to complain about such an insignificant thing." In August 2009, Henry referred to homosexuals as "unnatural" causing a complaint to be laid with the Broadcasting Standards Authority[6]. In February 2010 the BSA declined to uphold the complaint. In November 2009, Henry sparked controversy over comments he made about singer Susan Boyle and his on-air use of the term 'retarded' to describe her. His comments led to almost two hundred complaints to the Broadcasting Standards Authority, which regulates broadcast radio and television content within New Zealand[7]. In October 2010, Henry was again the subject of complaints, after questioning whether the Governor-General, Sir Anand Satyanand, was "even a New Zealander". He went on to ask "Are you going to choose a New Zealander who looks and sounds like a New Zealander this time ... are we going to go for someone who is more like a New Zealander this time?" [8][9] Sir Anand, who is of Indian descent, was born and raised in Auckland. Henry attracted criticism from public figures including Prime Minister John Key, whom Henry was interviewing when he made the remarks, Labour's leader Phil Goff and New Zealand's race relations commissioner Joris de Bres. Henry later issued a statement of apology for his comments.[8][10] After initially expressing its support for Henry, TVNZ announced the following day that it had suspended the presenter for two weeks without pay.[11] Following the decision to suspend Henry, it also emerged that TVNZ had continued to promote a recent clip in which Henry referred to New Delhi's chief minister Sheila Dixit as "the dipshit woman" and "Sheila DickShit", going on to state that "it's so appropriate, because she's Indian, so she'd be dick-in-**** wouldn't she, do you know what I mean? Walking along the street... it's just so funny!"[12] . New Zealand Indian Central Association president Paul Singh Bains said the fact that TVNZ was still promoting the clip on its website showed it had "totally lost the plot" and was insensitive to the offence Henry had caused[13]. Following at least four complaints against this video, TVNZ channel removed it from the 'Video extras" section of their website[13].

A person should be judged by their talent and skill NOT by their name. Every person coming from different cultural background has names related to the culture and language they are born into and one should be proud of it. NASA named Chandra the telescope after Subramanyam Chandrashekar who's an Indian American physicist...there are highly skilled, talented Indians all over the world becoming CEOs, CFOs, managers, presidents w/o changing their identities and that's how it's ought to be. It's self hating dipsh!ts like you who try to mirror themselves with others in hopes of becoming one of them whilst they fail to see how those others view them despite the change of name, lifestyle, clothes, dressing sense....I used to see Indian guys in high school here trying to wear beads and necklace and wearing Abercrombie n Fitch trying to imitate others and having this false sense of being one of them whilst clearly missing the indignation and mocking that went on behind their backs...no matter how much you change you will ALWAYS be seen as Indian. Indian(hindu) names comes from Sanskrit and they are quite unique and beautiful in their own way. One can integrate within the society by contributing with positive accomplishments whist showing pride in his roots. Exceptions: Politics -- If you're running for an office in America...It's probably better to change your first name or have nick name since the chances of winning depends on conveying your message to a wide group of people of which majority would be uncouth voters who are not aware of globalization and considers every dark skinned person to be an illegal alien. IE; Bobby Jindal (he also converted to Christianity & married a local white woman-- giving himself the further winning edge) Sales -- If you're in Sales and have to deal with average Joe everyday trying to sell your product...it's probably a good idea to have a nick name or a different 1st name to make it sound easier for the gullible customers. A lot of people tend to be less racist if you have a christian/english name
EnterTheVoid Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 What a *** the bloody host :finger: he clearly said that at :32 "she is Indian' date=' that's why she is dikshit" I wish some Indian in NZ slaps this ugly **** :winky:[/quote'] And an irritating hyena laughter to boot. The guy is a class a d!ick head.

Also the video itself isn't a big deal except when he refers to Indians in general, the article you posted and the reader's comments are much worse. well, in that case there is a FB page for ppl who disagree on his suspension but yoda, my point was if the country was so bad then it wouldn't allow immigration or let an Indian become a governor. I know we all generalize, its outta habit but we would also feel the same if someone generalized Indians if someone did something wrong Actually, we might defend it by blaming the region
Desi Cartman Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 If you read the article you will reference to **** and India ... dont know if its racist but its insulting ...
flamy Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Don't let facts get in the way. rofl, do you even understand what u r typing? fact - one guy. i've personally met some kiwis, and they are the coolest ppl.
Rajiv Posted October 7, 2010 Author Posted October 7, 2010 Manny, India hasn't advanced that much to accept humor of such kind, we are in the "going up, being recognized" stage and our culture is different, you can't expect people to giggle over this and she is an old lady which adds to the pinch. Also, you say ppl should adopt English names, ok fine that works but Sheila is an Indian Citizen - whats that got to do with her? just coz they have a hard time pronouncing it, we should fix it. C'mon man
EnterTheVoid Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 rofl, do you even understand what u r typing? fact - one guy. i've personally met some kiwis, and they are the coolest ppl. He goes generalizing the whole people based on what this one reporter said: Ok he is clearly racist based on both the video clip and news article. It is interesting to see the comments on that article page where people seem to think what he said was what most Nz-landers wanted to say but were afraid to. For some reason I thought Nz-landers weren't as bigoted as the Aussies' date= guess I was wrong. Bigoted Indeed.
