Tina Fey will not apologize if you are offended by her jokes
Fox ^ | 12/21/15

Posted on 12/21/2015 6:25:04 PM PST by SoFloFreeper

Tina Fey is sick of apologizing, and she's also tired of the Internet.

"Steer clear of the Internet and you'll live forever," Fey told Net-a-Porter magazine in a wide ranging interview. "We did an 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' episode and the Internet was in a whirlwind, calling it 'racist,' but my new goal is not to explain jokes."

If she is really going to apologize, then she should, by all rights, apologize for her entire miserable existence and the waste of space and resources that is her life.

Look, comedians push the envelope of free speech. Sometimes a joke offends. Sometimes that is the point. Sometimes things that are not jokes offend. Sometimes people deserve it. Not of fan of Miss Fay, but there has been WAY too much apologizing going on these past eight years.

But if you’re not Tina Fey you need to grovel and beg for forgiveness for even existing.

“I’m sorry but I won’t apologize.”

Gutless hack.

That would be right except I very much doubt Ms Fey and/or her fans would give the same latitude to anyone else making similar ‘jokes’ or just speaking their mind for that matter.

It’s the hypocrisy and double standards that is the problem.

Who’ s Tina Fey?

She's the Palin from mirror world where all is opposite to our world, some think she is amusing, apparently I have no sense of humor.

Is Tina Fey still hanging around? She must have crawled out of the cracks to help Hillary with her Depends.

btw, Tina, Sarah is much prettier than you are.. *meow* (I am a woman, LOL)

btw,Tina, Sarah is much prettier and MORE FEMININE than you are.

Don't take it from a woman. I'm a man...

and Sarah has aged like fine wine, and Tina has aged like milk.

Sociopathy means never having to say you’re sorry.

I didn’t read what you wrote- but I’d like to just vent a minute if I may?

You would be if you had read the article before vomiting out your uninformed comment and wasting everyone else’s time.

Too many on FR never read the article, they just vent their opinions.

“I’d be tired of Tina Fey, if I paid her any heed.”

I wouldn’t pay her any heed if I hadn’t thought she was cute when she was younger. And I don’t and never did care what she was saying.

Good. We need less fake apologizing from everyone. People should apologize only if they believe they have done something wrong, or if they have accidentally done real harm. "Real harm" does not include stressing the sensibilities of a tv viewer.
