Bill Maher Curses Out Audience for Not Laughing at Racist Joke

Bill Maher on Friday cursed out his audience for not laughing at a racist joke about Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman.

When his HBO Real Time attendees fell totally silent after the host said the judge in Florida gave Zimmerman bail under the condition that he only shoot "those kids," Maher raised both middle fingers at the crowd saying, "F--k you...You can get the stick out of your a--. It's just a joke" (video follows with transcript and commentary, serious vulgarity warning):

Bill Maher has never been funny.

So if Rush is "just an entertainer" what is Maher's job description? He is neither funny nor informative.

“Humor lesson for Maher:

Choking to death on your own vomit, not funny.”

I think I would laugh hysterically at video of Maher choking to death on his own vomit.

Author of article changes title to "Maher Curses Out Audience for Not Laughing at His Joke," with this postscript:

"Now, to be fair to Maher, my ignorance of boy bands was showing Saturday.

This article was originally titled "Bill Maher Curses Out Audience for Not Laughing at Racist Joke About Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman." I didn't realize the HBO Real Time host was referring to the popular British-Irish singing group [One Direction].

I thank the eagle-eyed NewsBusters reader Erik for bringing this to my attention via email, and apologize to Maher for accusing him of making a racist joke about Martin and Zimmerman.

It's still a pretty sad commentary that Maher and his writers are becoming too offensive for an audience he admitted months ago were a bunch of "brainwashed liberals."
