What the hell? How was she not taken to task? And she has a publicist, f*ck! The interviewer didn't even bat an eyelid either!

Bear in mind this is Australia. Context is everything.

I haven't read the comments but can completely imagine. There is a genuine cultural divide between some countries and others; the internet is very effective in revealing these. It's wrong to say that makes another population more or less racist because that depends on the intent behind the words, and I am in no place to suggest anything of the sort.
However, from my limited experience and evidence such as this, it seems they are fairly comfortable with some language which most others would consider pretty medieval...

This sums up Sydney- most particularly the scumbags who hang out in Kings Cross, pretty succinctly.
Australia's latent (and sometimes not!) racism is fairly appalling. I only rarely heard indigenous australians either referred to as anything other than 'wogs' or 'abos' and was told never to go to Redfern (an area in Sydney) because 'that's where the wogs live'.

I can’t get enough of this VT; I must have watched it 3 or 4 times today. It’s partly because I used to live in Kings Cross, partly because that racist girl is attractive, and partly because I frickin’ love the Australian media in a Anchorman sort of way.
I agree context is everything: if someone wants to call a gun victim a wog on the 9 o’clock news, then they bloody well will (cobber). As long as it’s viewed in the context that Australia is an inherently racist country; but since it’s just the way they talk, then contextually - it’s OK.

What an utter retard.

It turns out that Chk-Chk-Boom Girl didn’t witness the shooting at all; she just wanted to be on TV. Well congratulations, you’re now famous (for being a racist idiot). Chk-Chk-Boom.
