WTF Australia: Harry Connick Jr Shocked by Down Under Blackface Jackson Skit

You know those Foster’s Lager commercials that tout the “Australian” way of doing things as being understated in its hyper-masculinity. Maybe this skit was just Australian for funny.

Note the blogger’s take on Connick’s remarks. Did he mean to suggest that black people look and or act like “buffoons?” I think not. Good on you Harry Connick Jr.
