The German public broadcaster has been fined while filming a show in Greenland after a satirist sought to raise a US flag in public. The incident unfolded amid heightened sensitivity over statements from the US president.
A true facepalm idea…

its just a prank bro
Omg Extra 3 xD
I thought Oliver Welke and his team or Jan Böhmermann would have done something like that
The joke was aimed at Usa.
They could perform it at home on a stage with some artificial background, instead of annoy the peaceful Greenlanders.
GERMANS! STOP TRYING TO BE FUNNY, I IMPLORE YOU!
German humor is no laughing matter, this is for sure!
Ze joke is war. Why don’t you laugh?
a german classic
we have funny comedians i swear 😭 it’s just, that our bad comedians are soooo much worse than in other countries, that they overshadow any good humor.
edit: i just realised, that we DO have bad humor. otherwise we wouldn’t have so many bad comedians. however we actually have good comedians. it’s just that they are totally outnumbered and good humor seems to be a subgenre.

Best German joke one heard in a while.
-X- a western neighbor
Henning Vane is a succesful comedic export to the UK. Funny guy.
I know you do, that was perhaps a bit facetious (and lazy) of me. For instance, i find Henning Wehn hilarious, and as well as touring, he gets a decent amount of radio and TV work in my country.

Flula Borg is evidence enough for me
The context here is that Denmark has a flag law that disallows raising any flags other than that of the Nordics and Germany.
I believe that the Ukrainian flag is also allowed
Wait, the German flag is allowed?
Yeah, I suppose it’s because they have a sizeable German population.
Yes, that’s right: https://denmark.dk/people-and-culture/history/the-german-minority
TLDR
New law will not apply to flags of Finland, Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Germany, and regional or international organizations such as UN and EU
“At no point during filming was it intended that the satire was aimed at Greenlanders," the broadcaster stated.
Then everyone involved in the show is a complete imbecile.
Hasn’t Extra 3 fully turned to AI yet? Maxi Schafroth bits were always unbearable to watch but you could skip those, but when they started using AI for every single graphic they did in the whole show I called it quits.
What a great way to waste both taxpayer (sorry, “fee-payer”) money and diplomatic relations in one go.
Sounds like it would be funny if Borat did it though
