Hogan was caught on tape ranting about sex life of daughter Brooke, 27 In 2007 tape he said: 'if she was going to f**k some n****r, I'd rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n****r worth a hundred million dollars' Just before tape surfaced publicly on Friday, WWE cut all ties with Hogan Wrestler apologized and admitted tape was 'offensive' and 'unacceptable'
WWE has terminated its contract with Hulk Hogan after an audio tape emerged of him launching a racist tirade littered with the n-word complaining about his daughter's sex life. The 61-year-old pro wrestler, whose real name is Terry Bollea, made the comments in a recording which recently emerged as part of a legal battle. It features him repeating the phrase 'f**king n*****s' several times. The recording, the contents of which were reported by Radar Online, features Hogan making a string of racist jibes to Heather Clem, a friend's wife whom he was filmed having sex with in 2012.

Why is it okay for blacks to use the dreaded N word, but not okay for anyone else to use it? If it is such a reprehensible, vile word, shouldn’t it be considered vulgar and obscene and banned for everyone???
And, when a non-black person in the public eye has been discovered to have used that word, why is it that this person is not just embarrassed or ashamed, but, that forces are set in motion to deprive that public person of their livelihood? Paula Deen and Hulk Hogan are two good examples of this phenomenon.
Is this culture that politically correct that violators of political correctness must be targeted for destruction????
If Hulk was black, it would not be an issue. More pandering to the racist Washington regime.
Once you apologize, it opens you up to a lifetime of apologies to get out of these types of people screaming you're a racist. Just tell them, I said it and never comment on it again; it's not like they wouldn't call you a racist anyways.
Does the name “Hulk Hogan” belong to Terry Bollea or to the WWE? I am reminded of when the owners of the Lone Ranger prohibited Clayton Moore
from appearing as the Lone Ranger any more.
He didn’t say anything most of us haven’t said at one time or another. Let’s quit pretending ...
It’s a good thing he didn’t use the N word against a black LGBT.
Hogan- fired???
My, oh my, how’s the poor man going to get by???
This is just nuts.
It is stupid to fire him.
We all said something that we are not proud of a few times.
Besides, isn't the N-word a "term of endearment."
Does the WWE think we believe Hulk was a classy guy to begin with? It always amazes me when these things happen and the entity with which they’re associated with fires them. It’s such a ludicrous attempt to make everyone believe they had no idea the guy was an asshat.
Obama said the n-word and no one cares.
When are we going to start treating the races equally?
When I was a teaching assistant, I wouldn’t allow blacks to say the word- too many people fought (and some died) just so they wouldn’t be called that. I for one refuse to let ANYONE get away with it.
He has freedom of speech guaranteed by the 1st amendment. /sarc
He said it in the privacy of his home! The hypocrisy of the media is incredible. We’ve all said things that could be us d to destroy us.
Looks like Trump is right to never apologize.
If a pissed off father can't have the freedom of speech when his child has done something stupid or evil or whatever ... THAT is the thought police in action and we had BETTER think more seriously about who our government is and what they are doing to us.
Trump has started the ball rolling, West has fired MY ass up and Cruz is probably the mature one to sit in the controller's chair.
Father ... HELP us ... in Jesus' name, Amen.
Donald Sterling can relate to that. Private comments become public, then all of a sudden, you are marked for destruction by the forces of political correctness.
Off topic, but, I read recently, that Sterling’s girlfriend, the Stiviano girl , was moving out of the place Sterling bought for her. This was a result of the lawsuit by Sterling’s wife over gifts given to the girl.
Anyway, she got hers. She was making those tapes to bring down Sterling, as far as we know. But she was brought down herself.
