Watters: Netflix Allows Bill Burr ‘To Go Off’ on Abortion, Tells Employees to Quit if They Don’t Like its Content

EXCERPT:

WATTERS: "Following a lot of controversy over their specials, it looks like Netflix may finally be standing up for comedy. After airing content from Dave Chappelle and Ricky Gervais where they riffed on trans, the streaming service faced an avalanche of backlash from its own employees because they couldn't take the joke. They demanded the specials be pulled and staged a little walkout, calling the jokes dangerous and harmful. It got so bad for the bottom line that higher-ups stepped in and actually surprised us for once. They told them to knock it off. In a letter to the woke employees, headquarters simply said, 'If you don’t like our content, quit.' And it worked. They kept the specials up and now they are putting their money where their mouth is, because comedian Bill Burr just dropped a new special this month and his abortion material is getting a lot of people worked out."

BUTT: "I sit on the fence and the whole thing makes sense to me. Whatever anybody is saying, like, 'Don’t tell me what to do, it’s my body, my choice.' 'That’s right, man, she is right. Leave her the hell alone!' 'Why are you killing the baby?!' 'I mean, there is that.' You know? I mean, if we are going to be honest, that is the whole purpose of the procedure."
