What has Jon Lovitz done since he went off on Barak Obama's tax policy in an interview?


That interview was in 2012. Here's what he's done since:

Appeared in 26 films

Appeared in 25 TV Shows, including primarily on "Funny You Should Ask" - 257 episodes

It does not appear that he was cancelled at all for his opinion on Obama.

I know she called a black woman a monkey, so I am not surprised she was cancelled.

Go read what I wrote.

Name one comedian who has been effectively cancelled or relegated from the spotlight.


You asked for names. He gave you one? What are we missing here?

Never heard of Hannah Gadsby so I googled her....
From Wikipedia:

Hannah Gadsby (born 12 January 1978) is an Australian comedian, writer, and actor. They began their career in Australia...

Stopped reading after the "they" and "their."

It's okay, not great. He's capable of way better jokes, but he's not meant to be PG.

I said no one is being cancelled for telling fart jokes or sex jokes. Barr compared a former White House staffer to a monkey. Wasn’t even a joke. Not sure how that’s similar to a joke within a standup set.

I assumed you weren’t being literal. Absolutely nobody is making a counter argument to that, so I don’t understand the point you are trying to make.
