Former late-night television host Jay Leno has issued a public apology to Asian-Americans for jokes he has told over his career. The apology came during a conference call he participated in with an Asian-American advocacy group. Leno is going out of his way to say that this isn’t an example of cancel culture, but rather a serious case of him “making the wrong choices” and taking responsibility for his decisions. But it just seems like there has to be more to this story than first meets the eye. Leno has been gone from The Tonight Show for more than seven years and largely out of the public eye.

Comedian Jay Leno issued an apology Wednesday for past jokes about Asians and Asian Americans.
Media Action Network for Asian Americans said the former “Tonight Show” host expressed his remorse in a recent Zoom call between himself and the group’s leadership.
The Asian American advocacy group said it has spent years complaining about Leno’s comments.
In 2002, the 70-year-old comedian joked about Chinese people and about Korean people eating dogs. Those comments were said to have continued over the years.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
