Worry When They Name Dane Cook Secretary Of State

We had those controversies over Tracy Morgan and Jo Koy making comments in their acts about gays, and now there's Chelsea Handler getting into trouble over some off-hand jokes about Serbia. And lost amidst the reporting -- which, oddly, never actually tells you everything she said -- is that, um, she's a comedian, which doesn't automatically excuse anything but does add some context, namely, um, nothing she says has any influence or impact whatsoever. If a world leader says something offensive, that's one thing. A comedian, well, so what? Just don't watch her show if you find her offensive. That usually works. (The Hollywood Reporter)
