“Saturday Night Live” is facing backlash after it was announced comedian Dave Chappelle will host the show Nov. 12.
Chappelle, who was slammed for making statements about the trans community in his 2021 special “The Closer,” was revealed as the host through the show’s Twitter account.
“Wait I thought I canceled him. Is it possible cancel culture isn’t a real thing,” tweeted ex-Netflix employee Terra Field.
Field, who was co-vice president of Netflix’s transgender employee resource group, resigned from the streaming platform in November last year in protest over the comedy special and later led a walkout, according to Newsweek.

They must be worried their show might actually be funny.

hopefully Dave sues the crap out of that D-Bag! He basically admitted to defaming him!

You've gotta give Dave Chapelle credit...he's no coward.And some of the stuff he's done has been damn funny.

This is actually amazing. The hyper left is demanding perfection in their goose steps. One misstep and it’s off with their heads.

How desperate is NBC that they’re having Dave Chappelle host the decayed relic of Saturday Night Live?

She's entitled to her opinion. But she is not entitled to cancel. Anyone.

I’d probably watch SNL for the first time in decades and laugh my butt off if they put Chapelle and Julia Sweeney together in a skit of It’s Pat.
