Cologne/Hamburg - in her controversial video "Dunk the Lord" Kebekus RAPS in a nuns costume. You write "he is my Bank, I dress up blank only for him", lifts her skirt before the crucified Jesus, licks a crucifix. The satire of this church goes the Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) apparently too far. Therefore,
the sender has removed the controversial clip from the new show
"Kebekus!" which will be broadcast on Wednesday night for the first time
on Einsfestival.

Kebekus
appreciated that in Stefan Raab show ' TV total ' at ProSieben as
censorship: "You don't have to watch," said the comedian, "is totally
mutilated." Therefore, this sequence will remain arguably the last broadcast. Raab recommended Kebekus to complain when the new WDR Director, Tom Buhrow and to insist on the freedom of art.
Meanwhile, the video shows Kebekus on YouTube:
The WDR rejected the criticism on Wednesday in Cologne, Germany: "the WDR is available for liberalism and tolerance. That
also means to respect the religious beliefs of the population and not
to admit the denigration of religious symbols in its broadcasts." The station referred to the provisions of the WDR Act. The text lays down that the religious beliefs of the population are required.
Already
in February, Carolin Kebekus had with the Catholic Church "a satirical
performance at the today show" brought against him as the mirror
reported. In the ZDF broadcast the cabaret
performer on camera at the Cologne Cardinal Joachim Meisner as Pope Joan
had applied - Magik reply: "Because you have not the character to do
so." A spokesman for the German Bishops
Conference is attempting to stop the broadcast of the episode, the
station remained strong: the scene was in full length gezeigtWie far can
satire go? Not as far as the by Carolin Kebekus, finds the WDR. The channel dash a church-critical video from her new show "Kebekus!". The comedian protested - and advises TV viewers: "You don't need to watch!"
