“Let the f—ing ch-nks live there,” says Gillis. He later recalls a restaurant being “full of f—ing Chinee [sic] in there.”

This digging up of old shite has to stop.


The thing they digged up was like a couple months old to be fair. Prolly not great to put that guy on the same news page as your first Asian hire in 45 years

Even if Lorne still went forward with him,

To SNL and NBC’s credit, it looks like they are trying to weather the storm and ignore the SJW blowback.

Rob Schneider is 1/2 Asian so the historic milestone? Not so much.

I've only seen two people come out in support of the bull.

Norm Macdonald

Congrats on getting the big show, Shane. Enjoy every moment of it. Peace



And Andrew Yang LOL

@AndrewYang

For the record, I do not think he should lose his job. We would benefit from being more forgiving rather than punitive. We are all human

Yes. She looked just like my friend's mom. I still have nightmares of Mrs. Alice screaming at us as kids.

What about Keenan? Dudes been on since the 90s it seems.
Though I do love his game show host skits. Especially the Family Fued with Chance the Rapper as his illegitimate son with the family friend.

A little more than 21 minutes into “Ep 146 – Live from Shane’s Parent’s Basement,” while talking about the Battle of Gettysburg, Gillis refers to soldiers yelling as “so gay"


They're mad about that?

Is that wrong? Should we not say that? Is it frowned upon now?

New ‘Saturday Night Live’ Cast Member Shane Gillis Fired Over Racial Slur Use
quote:

“After talking with Shane Gillis, we have decided that he will not be joining SNL,” an SNL spokesperson said on behalf of Lorne Michaels. “We want SNL to have a variety of voices and points of view within the show, and we hired Shane on the strength of his talent as comedian and his impressive audition for SNL. We were not aware of his prior remarks that have surfaced over the past few days. The language he used is offensive, hurtful and unacceptable. We are sorry that we did not see these clips earlier, and that our vetting process was not up to our standard.”

Some non-white hetero female or LGBTQ comedian is about to get hired.

Guess SNL will hire someone with mediocre comedic skills who fits the SJWs criteria. shite is old, comedy is comedy, not necessarily how anyone feels IRL about subject matter.

Calling Chinese people chinks is as a bad as calling black folks the N word. Plus this was a few months ago not a few years ago.
