Joe uses the N-word

The podcast host Joe Rogan has offered “sincere and humble apologies” after footage emerged of him repeatedly using the N-word on his hit show. He said it was the “most regretful and shameful thing” he has ever had to speak about, but stressed the clips were “taken out of context”.

Rogan, 54, took to Instagram on Friday night to share a video in which he expresses his “deepest, sincerest” apologies.

“I’m making this video to talk about the most regretful and shameful thing that I’ve ever had to talk about publicly. There’s a video that’s out that’s a compilation of me saying the N-word. It’s a video that’s made of clips taken out of context of me of 12 years of conversations on my podcast, and it’s all smushed together. And it looks f—ing horrible, even to me,” Rogan said.

So will this Joe apologize for using the racial slur – or does he get the Democrat Pass?
