Comedian's on a Rampage.
If he was a conk, his show would be cancelled already.
Mr. Maher said: “Work in the fields? Senator, I’m a house nigger. No, it’s a joke.”

Frankly I love it...
It's fun to see exactly who is "offended" by the joke
and then hear them try to explain why that usage is so offensive

I could pretend to be offended, but then I'd just be pretending.
Come to think of it, there's not much that can come out of any mouth that offends me
Except for "irregardless"

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
It's the beginning of the left eating their own. Maher may come out unscathed, but you can see the alt left is totally unhinged. Nobody is a bigger victim.

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
On a related note, I am actually enjoying what is currently happening to that biology prof from Evergreen.
His set has enabled this nonsense and as far as I am concerned I can't thing of a more deserving target of progressive ire - and it will serve to eventually marginalize and shut down this absurd movement

Chizz,
The issue for many of us is not what they did or said, it is the fact that if anyone can get away with it, the left can. The right can't get away with far less.

The only thing about Maher that offends me is that giant hook nose. Get some work done on that beak already.

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
I am not a Bill Maher fan. But my outlook on this is the same as it is in any similar situation. The response is ridiculous. And it's sad that we live in a culture where someone potentially loses their job over a Statement like that. Just absurd.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
My opinion is the same as if this were a conservative person saying it. It's pure crap. It's just a fvk'n word. Get over it.

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
I think the biggest takeaways from that show were:
1). Senator Ben Sasse is one of the sharpest conservative minds around. He was very impressive.
2). That techie dude in the 2nd interview had some interesting things to say about cyber-ethics and the "attention economy".

Is it because it offends the employer? Nope
Is it because it would hurt the employer's business (i.e. viewership, sponsorship, etc.)? Yup

Re: Comedian's on a Rampage.
This one wasn't off facebook. I gave you 2 examples that you dismissed apparently. When a JSO type response with stats, etc, to you becomes more important than my job, I'll take the time to reply in kind.Chizzang wrote:When I make a claim I will make every effort to explain it...Gil Dobie wrote:

When Paula Dean was fired she was presently in the middle of losing a discrimination lawsuit and her brother who was also her show manager was in the middle of losing his sexual harassment suit..Gil Dobie wrote:This one wasn't off facebook.

These were law suits that they both lost
and also led to them getting fired - I don't know anything about the Hulk Hogan situation
But is Hulk hogan a conservative figure..?
If Maher was being sued for discrimination practices and sexual harassment he'd be GONE
