this is a waste of time, and why is it people need to get scolded for everything they say especially comedians. I don’t hate gays in any way. Public apologies for comedy are a joke, and Mike Richards is another example. It seems any minority group who has a organization witch hunts comedians over what they say…its censorship, and a joke the same goes for Gilbert Gottfried for the statements on Japan….and even the other one with Roger Ebert on Ryan Dunn.
Public Apology of the Day: Tracy Morgan returned to Nashville today — the site of his now-infamous anti-gay rant — to publicly apologize for his remarks.
“I want to apologize to my friends, my family and my fans,” Morgan said at a news conference held at the Nashville Convention Center. “I didn’t know. I didn’t mean it.”
He concluded his statement by hugging Kevin Rogers, the audience member whose account of Morgan’s show brought his homophobic comments to light. “I believe it was just a huge mistake,” Rogers said before Morgan left the room.
