30Rock

A) WHY DO YOU THINK I WANTED YOU TO WATCH THIS EPISODE?

I think you wanted us to see this episode because it tells us about how judgemental some people could be. It is a very big problem that white people judge dark-skinned and muslims, before they even know anything about them. And in this episode of the 30Rock, the lady is very judgemental to her neighbour. She thought he was planning a terror attack, when he was doing something totally different.


B) IS USING OF HUMOR A GOOD WAY TO APPROACH SENSITIVE TOPICS?

Yes, because people like to watch things inkluding humor, and therefore they will get to know what the topic is all about. Someone would probably think it's offending that humor is being used, because terrorism is such a touching theme.
People pay attention to what they think it's funny, therefore it's a good way to approach sensitive topics by using humor.
