International Incident! New Zealand News Presenter Laughs At Indian Official Named “Dikshit”

In the clip below, New Zealand TV presenter and caterwauling moron Paul Henry has a bit of a laugh over the name of Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit. “What’s her name? Dick- shit?” Henry howls. “And it’s so appropriate because she’s Indian so it should be dick-in-shit, wouldn’t it?”

Henry’s colleagues repeatedly correct him, saying that the name is pronounced Dix-it but Henry continues to yell “dick-shit!”

The video has caused an international incident. According to the Times of India, New Zealand has issued a formal apology and TVNZ reports that the Indian government has lodged a formal compliant against their anchor. They also report that Henry has been suspended without pay.
