Oh, Donald Glover, bless you for writing that song. I could watch Mr. Glover stride back and forth across the stage just...forever. Sigh.

"Humor" like that only comes from a place of deep rooted hatred.

We know what he meant. We've heard it before. And I used to love him. Now I can't bear the sight of him. I don't hate him. I pity him.

Props to his PR team: this was a model of how to do a proper only-slightly-weaselly apology.
5
So based on his NBC written apology we can assume if he does end up having a son who turns out to be gay he will still kill him?

HAPPY GAY PRIDE MONTH FROM THE CAST OF "30 ROCK"!!!!

He didn't address any of the questions that arose out of his rant, though, did he?

Does he believe homosexuality is a choice?

Does he believe that kids learn homosexuality from the media?

What would he really say to his son if he were gay?

Does he believe homosexuality is unmanly?

@6, no, I think he DID address answers to all of those questions. Silence is it's own answer to many many things in this world.

Dear Tracy Morgan, your apology is as genuine as your attempts at comedy. You were one of the worst things about Cop Out (and that says something), and you were one of the weaker links in Death at a Funeral. Being unfunny is a choice that every humorless unfunny asshole makes. They learn it by watching TV or really bad standup and taking away the shit while leaving the good stuff. But, it takes special talen to sell humorless schlock as comedy. And, that is you. If I had a son who came home and was as obnoxious and loud as you while being just as funny, I'd perform a tracheotomy WITHOUT anesthesia. Maybe we'll finally be rid of you. Fuck off, TheMisanthrope

Oh that Tracy.

He should face the same social and career consequnces as Don Imus and Michael Richards. What he said was every bit as bad. I'm sick of being told that we have to fight anti-black racism as though it were cancer, yet homophobia and bigotry spewed by African Americans generates none of the same conquequences.

Our basketball hoop was a ribcage. A RIBCAGE!

I smell Toofer Story Arc!

#8 - what on Earth lead you to see Death at a Funeral? No way they played that on a plane.

@13 Its an obsession with Neil LaBute. I've watched every single feature of his, including all of his shitty shitty flops. The Wicker Man and Lakeview Terrace. ZOMG. Death at a Funeral was merely pedestrian bad compared to those two.

It is also why I saw Cop Out: Kevin Smith.

Both were on HBO when I saw them. And, I had a couple of hours.
15
Well at least it only took a few days. How long did it take Eddie Murphy to apologize?
17
@14 & 16 Your cable has crapped in your brains.

The funny, "lovable" Tracey Jordan/Morgan on the first seasons of 30 Rock was Donald Glover's writing. If you haven't noticed the character has become mostly useless since Glover moved to Community. Morgan was always this homophobic, disturbed, and unfunny without good writers and editing.
19
Boycott the bigot. I had sworn him off already for pure lack of comedic chops; he was profoundly unfunny at the Showbox. Now I have yet another reason to stop supporting his "comedy." What a jackass.
20
@17 Admittedly, I probably would have sought out both movies due to obsession on Netflix Streaming. :-/
21
@11: That's gold.
22
Tracy Morgan needs to take some Homocil. Because it's his problem, not theirs.

@21: One item for SCAV this year was "A basketball hoop that's a rib cage. A RIB CAGE!"
One team's road trip crew found a deer skeleton by the side of the road and brought parts of it back, using the ribs for that item.

APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED Black Boy.
-From a Mexican American Gay Man

@10 Yeah, that Isaiah Washington got off scot-free.

It's gonna take a lot more than some forced apology to make me like Tracey Morgan again. Let's see him play a "lovable and funny" gay character. Then we'll talk.
28
@27 "Funny"? Tracey Morgan? Damn, you're never going to forgive the bastard.
29
Frankly,
I'd never really heard much about this "comic" till this issue, he just never stood out as someone whose career was worth following, now the "spots" are him. I don't believe he is sincerely contrite about what he said, more worried that revealing his true feelings will damage his career. The worst part is there are millions of others of all races, creeds & nationalities whose beliefs about homosexuality make him their brother.

Please wait...
