Saturday night was the White House Correspondents Dinner a star studded event attended by the media elites. Come Sunday morning most of the media was praising President Obama’s performance during the dinner, while expressing how disappointing comedian Larry Wilmore’s act was. Fox News’ Juan Williams really took it to Wilmore on Fox News Sunday saying, “to black America it awful. It was degrading...”
“I think the disappointing part was the comedian Larry Wilmore. Obama at the end drops the mic, right? Well Wilmore just dropped into the most scurrilous language, racial language,” Williams started off his hammering of Wilmore. Williams dug into Wilmore even deeper saying he degraded the black community. “After praising the president as the first black man leading the free world he uses the "N" word and talks about my "N" word,” he said. “It was degrading and suggested somehow that this president is only to be judged in that manner,” he explained.
Larry Wilmore is known for having a warped sense of humor. On April 26, Wilmore found humor in questioning how best to execute Republican Governor Rick Snyder. He went on to fantasize about beating Snyder with a “sack of nickels.” Wilmore is also known for putting heavy emphasis on race in politics. He once raised questioned Senators Ted Cruz and Marco because they “don’t really embrace their Hispanic heritage.”
