    Context explains it entirely. You're atypically getting whooshed on this, I'm very surprised.

        Oh bullshiat. He directed it at himself, but if he's going for self-deprecating humor he could've easily said, "I'm a rich New Yorker arsehole, like I'd ever work in a field in bumblefark Nebraska."

        He did it to shock and cause the controversy he's causing. He's been doing this schtick for decades.

        Just because there's a difference between his usage and a true racist's, doesn't make his usage actually appropriate.

            sorry but if we want to be serious, no one should really ever use that word again...it's pretty simple.

              The problem is people do...and not just racists. (and he is far from the only popular White Comedian who does and the Black Community doesnt seem to mind)

              Bill Maher apologized right? There isnt much else he needs to do. HBO did as well. If they choose to fire him that is their right but I doubt they would.

              Then again I am biased because I love when Maher ****es off the precious little snowflakes on the Left. I dont care what a bunch of bourgeois White people think about race issues or Islam. Now I do care that the BLM activists were offended (not so much Al Sharpton because that guy has zero credibility on race issues) and hopefully he reaches out and makes amends. (seeing as he actively supports them I am sure he will) The rest, sorry they can sit on it and spin

                Did anyone watch Genius? I'm wondering if this is worth catching on Demand before they pull it off.

                  The show about the book editor or the show about Einstein? Both are recent releases.

                              A few of their specials have been real duds lately so I didn't want to invest the time.

                              I loved the book by Walter Isaacson but wasn't sure how I'd like the show.
