	Margaret Cho - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Margaret Cho (born Moran Cho on December 5, 1968 in San Francisco, California) is a Korean-American comedian and actress.
		In 2004, Cho was performing at a corporate gig in a hotel when, after 10 minutes, her microphone was cut off and a band was instructed to begin playing.
		This is the first time in Cho's DVD's in which she includes herself in when talking about gays, saying "we" and "our community." Posters for Assassin feature Cho in paratrooper gear holding a microphone in the style of an automatic rifle, a reference to the infamous 1974 photo of heiress Patty Hearst.

		Cho's penchant for comedy commenced in San Francisco, when she entered the McAteer High School of the Performing Arts, aspiring to be an actress.

		Cho does a lot of material about -- and work for -- the gay and lesbian community, and there was a large presence of "family" in the house.
		Margaret Cho is one of a small number of comedians that I have wanted to see live, and I am thankful that the Cornell University Program Board (CUPB) brought her to Ithaca.
		Cho dealt with a number of well-publicized issues during the run of her sitcom -- being criticized by the network for being overweight, told to act "more Asian" and eventually being told to act "less Asian" on her show.

		Margaret Cho leaves little to the imagination in her new concert film "The Notorious C.H.O.," detailing, whether you really want to know or not, the details of her more recent sexual escapades, including being fisted by a very short lesbian in a sex club.
		Cho's parents get a fair amount of screen time, both as talking heads in the pre-show interviews and as characters in some of Margaret's most affecting moments on stage.
		Cho lives her life in recurring cycles: putting a show together, touring, promoting the film version and then returning to real life again to rest and begin gathering material.

	Margaret Cho (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A self-described "Korean-American fag-hag, st-starter, girl comic, trash talker," Margaret Cho** is nothing if not straightforward, and this forthright approach to her material made her one of the more compulsively entertaining -- and startling -- comedians to gain an audience in the 1990s.
		The daughter of Korean immigrants, Cho was born in San Francisco on December 5, 1968.
		After moving to Los Angeles in the early '90s, Cho found her audience growing, and, after appearing on shows hosted by Arsenio Hall and Bob Hope and winning the 1994 American Comedy Award for Female Comedian, she was approached to be the star of her own sitcom, CBS' All-American Girl.

		Cho even makes some self-deprecating remarks, calling herself a "bitch" and a "fat dyke." In the end, it all feels too mean-spirited to be humorous.

	Asia Pacific Arts: When Comedy and Activism Violently Collide: Margaret Cho Sounds Off
		Margaret Cho is angry, and she's not going to take it anymore.
		In 2000, when Margaret Cho's first concert film I'm the One That I Want came out, the New York Times described her as "hilarious," "uproariously raunchy," and a "dynamo whose outrage is tempered by an empathetic sweetness." Five years and three concert films later, Margaret Cho is still hilarious, still raunchy, still outrageous.
		As Margaret Cho denounces America as racist and bashes, um, basically everyone, her hands flaring up in the air, her facial expressions hyperbolically expressive, part of me wonders if she's taking it too far.

	Margaret Cho: Assassin (2005): Reviews
		The incomparable Margaret Cho roars back onto the screen with her latest concert, The Assassin Tour, recorded live in May of 2005 at the Warner Theater in Washington D.C. (Regent Releasing)
		Inspiration is running thin in comedian Margaret Cho's fourth concert film, a routine stand-up set that compares poorly to her oft-hilarious first two.
		Though Cho occasionally connects with her targets, more often than not she seems as intolerant and hate-filled as she accuses them of being - and that's not funny.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: Margaret Cho: Assassin
		Taped at a May 14, 2005 concert in Washington, D.C., Margaret Cho: Assassin starts off like her 2000 film I’m the One That I Want with a parade of gushing fans, then segueing into the show itself, but unlike that much more ambitious effort, this film shows a comic treading water.
		The problem with Cho’s tirades on Bush and the Christian right is not her choice of target – they’re obviously subjects rife with possibility – but rather her inability to say anything remotely fresh or cutting about them.
		This isn’t to say that Cho should stick to the subjects she has mined before to much better effect (family, being a Korean-American in Hollywood, the life of a dedicated fag hag), but mere posturing and faux radicalism can’t hide her simple inability to tell a decent joke anymore.

	Margaret Cho: Assassin (2005)
		For topical, politically themed humor doesn't appear to be Cho's comic forte, no matter how many times she drops the "F" bomb or mugs for the appreciative audience in Washington, D.C.'s, Warner Theater.
		Filmed during Cho's 2005 "Stage of Emergency" tour, Margaret Cho: Assassin opens with the comedienne discussing the rage people are feeling across the country as tensions flare between conservatives and liberals.
		The fourth and weakest of Cho's concert films, Margaret Cho: Assassin doesn't pack the punch of I'm the One That I Want and Notorious C.H.O. Skip Margaret Cho: Assassin and rent either of those films to catch Cho at her profane best.
