Guys and dollars
Article Abstract:
Humour can be very effective in fighting wrong, according to television satirist Michael Moore. He feels that the best comedy is always derived from serious anger about the social and human condition. He is proud of his working class background, pointing out that it is unusual for the concerns of the working class to feature on television. He was the youngest person ever elected to political office in the US, but does not regard himself as a political activist.

You ask the questions
Article Abstract:
Comedian, author and bon viveur Keith Allen does not believe that he has any insecurities. He never feels depressed about his appearance, and does not regard himself as the founder of the macho laddish culture. He greatly admires the late comedian Les Dawson, but is not a fan of Chris Evans, whom he regards as being symptomatic of everything he dislikes about prominent figures in light entertainment.
