Title is fake news, he didn't use the word, he referenced someone else using the word.
He said the word. That's all that matters in cases like this. Is there a more toxic word in American culture right now?

Context matters.
Agree, but this was said in a professional environment while on a conference call.

Probably "Trump", if you're a committed leftist.

Anyone who can't differentiate between saying a word and using it in a derogatory manner doesn't need to be taken seriously.

And a big WTF at this
quote:
multiple individuals on the call found them to be offensive, the source said. After learning about the incident, Laundry Service owner Casey Wasserman moved to terminate the company’s contract with Papa John’s.
quote:
This week, Laundry Service laid off 10% of its workforce in response to financial pressure, attributable in part to its revocation of the Papa John’s contract.
What on Earth...
This company is run by morons.

You're assuming an application of common sense. When does that ever happen in situations like this?

He's an idiot for saying it at all, but it's a far cry from being a racist.

Who gives a frick? If someone is offended by something that isn’t offensive, that’s on them not the person who said it.

Of course the trump base doesn't see anything wrong with this

These twins that went to Ole Miss at the same time as me lived down the street from Papa John.
They told us he has a full, automatic car wash on his property and the whole street is allowed to use it free of charge.
Always thought that was badass
