“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.

Backlash from who? A handful of grooming pedophiles?
Yeah. Right. Hiring one of the most accomplished comedians in the country is a slap in the face to whom? I guess the talentless politicos pretending to do comedy.
Was thinking the same thing. Chappelle actually is funny, SNL may never recover from his appearance.

“ co-vice president of Netflix’s transgender employee resource group”
No wonder these companies can fire half their workforce and never even notice
really crazy stupid people ping...
He was on the last time I watched SNL 6 years ago.
The show was “OK”, Dave was pretty good, and there
was a horrible tribute for loser Clinton.
Exactly. I'll bet the awful SNL needs Chappelle to bring up sagging ratings. I do watch it from time to time (so you don't have to, LOL). Overall it is AWFUL.
So homosexuals and trans people are now the arbiters of humor?
For crying out loud! They account for about 1% of the US population but you’d think they were 50%.
What idiocy.
Dave reconsider your saving these political hack non comedic idiots and their piss poor show
