Samuel L. Jackson is not here for Joe Rogan’s n-word apology
Subject
Samuel L. Jackson; Joe Rogan; N-Word
Description
Samuel L. Jackson doesn’t seem to be buying host Joe Rogan’s apology for his past use of the n-word on his podcast. “He is saying nobody understood the context when he said it,” Jackson told The Times in a recently published interview, reportedly rolling his eyes as he said it. “But he shouldn’t have said it.” Rogan apologized in February after a compilation video of him using the racial slur made the rounds on social media.
