Tina Fey On Tracy Morgan’s Rant

June 10, 2011 / Posted by:

Alec Baldwin has already responded to Tracy Morgan’s fire-breathing sermon against gays with a Tweet shrug and now Tina Fey and the head of NBC issued their own statements since some people were wondering What Would Liz Lemon Do?

The head of NBC said that he was happy Tracy apologized and that they don’t agree with hate or violence towards anybody (except Conan O’Brien). Since the NBC peacock is as gay as the NBC peacock, he went on to say that both the network and 30 Rock accept everybody (except Conan O’Brien) so Tracy’s comments were against what they believe in.

As for Tina, she put it like this:

“I’m glad to hear that Tracy apologized for his comments. Stand-up comics may have the right to ‘work out’ their material in its ugliest and rawest form in front of an audience, but the violent imagery of Tracy’s rant was disturbing to me at a time when homophobic hate crimes continue to be a life-threatening issue for the GLBT Community. It also doesn’t line up with the Tracy Morgan I know, who is not a hateful man and is generally much too sleepy and self-centered to ever hurt another person.

I hope for his sake that Tracy’s apology will be accepted as sincere by his gay and lesbian coworkers at 30 Rock, without whom Tracy would not have lines to say, clothes to wear, sets to stand on, scene partners to act with, or a printed-out paycheck from accounting to put in his pocket. The other producers and I pride ourselves on 30 Rock being a diverse, safe, and fair workplace.”

Tina Fey should know that one of my shittiest ex-boyfriends slept 12 hours a day and always sat on the side of the table that faced the giant mirror in the dining room at Mimi’s Cafe, so sleepy selfish dick bags can be hateful too. But what I’m getting from Tina’s statement is that on the next season of 30 Rock, Tracy Jordan will become color blind which will lead him to only wearing rainbow colored clothing. Then Tracy Jordan’s son Tracy Jr. will come out to him at around the same time he develops a Tourettes-like tick that forces him to stab his daddy in the knee with a rusty shank repeatedly throughout the day. Either that or she’s saying that bitch better get right or he’ll be lucky if he gets a job as Mel Gibson’s understudy at the Westboro Baptist Dinner Theater.

And I just realized that typing “dining room at Mimi’s cafe” was ridiculous. Like that shit was some fine dining.
