Comedian Sarah Silverman has apologized to comedy club owner Al Martin for accusing him of paying her less than men. The apology came after Mr. Martin wrote a blistering response to the allegation on his social media page.

The New York women’s organization uploaded a PSA April 6 in which Ms. Silverman accused Mr. Martin of paying her much less than a male friend.

I love it when a liberal twists the truth to further their agenda and then it comes back to slap the $hip out of ‘em

So she’s saying that all women were raped at DUKE?

“Are you kidding ? You come in to my club 15 years ago and ask me for a guest spot, I did not ask you to perform and you were not booked, and Then you ask me for pay? You asked to work out some material … Then you make this a gender pay thing? Sarah great cause I am with it, but I did not pay you less cause of gender … I paid you less because Todd Barry was booked and you weren’t … It was a GUEST SPOT, so I gave you some car fare, which actually is more than almost any club would have given for a GUEST Spot … Funny how in your attempt to become a super hero with a noble cause, you forgot that little fact … GUEST SPOT … GUEST SPOT.”

What a great response.

At least she apologized. Good for her.

Meh, her apology wasn't much. Then she turned it around and said people shouldn't criticize the 'wage-gap' issue, because even though she was wrong it's still a major issue and her attempt to shine a spotlight on it was a complete fail, but it's still important. Right.

Yeah, she’s cute on the outside, but you’ll be hard pressed to find a more vial and self absorbed ass hat than Sarah Silverman.

turns out, it wasn’t really an apology.

Off topic aside here:

Last year I saw the video Silverman made with
Michael Weatherly from NCIS playing Jesus.

I WAS shocked at the disgusting dialogue and meme.

I knew what Silverman was already but didn’t
realize what a POS Weatherly is.

Since then NCIS is on the (ever-growing) list
of Forbidden Hollywood in my house.
