What I find bizarre is that some of King’s protagonists would find him personally repulsive. The Roland Deschaine of King’s novels (and not the miserable movie) would not suffer King’s idiocy.

“Apologies” are a dime a dozen these days, Stevie. Take yours and shove it.

Yep - and he must be back on the sauce - some of his books, a few years ago, included blurbs of him patting himself on the back for getting off the booze....

The guy that hit him should have backed up a few times in order to finish the job.

He apologized but made it clear it was grudging ("if one is required"), insulted the republicans (heartless votes) before quasi praising them for helping.

This guy needs an editor for his tweets in the worst way.

King was The Man back in the 1970s, 80s. The Stand, It, the first book of the Dark Tower series will all probably be remembered as classics.

Sadly, his writing dropped a bit once he sobered up. It’s still readable, but not the same quality it once was.

The last thing of his that I read was Revival, which I thought was ok, maybe a 6/10.

That was no apology. Crass and cowardly with no guts to either issue a real apology or stand by who he is.

A most disgusting and contemptible combination.

Ah, I was substituting Red Badger’s words with Paul Simon’s “Still crazy after all these years”.
