I'm confused about this. Details of the sketch were in the liked news article so the producers could run it past Cameron and see what he thinks about it. The conceit that "he might be insulted" doesn't make any sense - let him see what's in the sketch and ask him if he is insulted. If he is, ask him if it's enough to make him leave the ceremony, knowing that it makes him look thin skinned and someone who can't take a joke. Tom -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
