HBO is facing mounting calls to fire late-night host Bill Maher, after the comedian used the “N-word” during his live interview with Nebraska Republican Senator Ben Sasse on Friday night.
Bill Maher: “I gotta get to Nebraska more.”
Sen. Ben Sasse: “You’re welcome. We’d love to have you work in the fields with us.”
Bill Maher: “Work in the fields? Senator, I’m a house n*gger. It’s a joke.”
Bill Maher has since apologized for using the racial slur.
