How can something be labelled ‘bad’ when so many people find it funny and entertaining? Does this not mean that the term bad comedian simply does not qualify for its meaning?
In relation to comedy, such jokes on the topic of racism, cultural identity, sexism jokes, people who are less off and so on should not be at the end of a joke. But in making such topics light hearted it can make taboo topics easier to talk about.
The logic behind bad comedians is quite complex. A large majority of people enjoy listening to jokes on taboo topics, and likely to involve excessive swearing and inappropriate language. Here is a link from the Times that approaches anti-Jewish jokes: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/guest_contributors/article609132.ece
In a society so 'free,' why do we find it difficult to talk about certain topics?
