This was shared with me yesterday, after the song and dance he made about Haiti being great (despite being caught out staying at a 5 star resort) i found this just a little too bitter to stay quiet on.

This was a bit he did a decade ago. He insulted every country on the planet. If you're bitter over this, please write him a letter - I'm sure he'd love to hear from you.

I'm so triggered by what this man said via a writer's piece over 10 years ago in a comedy bit, that I'll ignore his actual opinions and efforts in the present day.

I think I’ll follow the sentiment of the rest of the thread.. :)
Even if it wasn’t a comedy scetch from around 10 years ago.. what ever his views where back then, it has nothing to do with his views now, we all change opinions over time..
Who ever made this video is just a trumper mad about people making fun of his dear leader:p

It's a comedy sketch where part of the joke is that Conan is being an ass. The thing you're comparing it to is a President being racist.

OH, I just finished the video and he referenced getting mail. I think that it was part of an attempt to get hate mail from every country.

His views have changed regarding humor? He has NOTHING to apologize for in that video, he's just jokingly poking fun at other countries, there's nothing wrong with that. The joke is that he's being a troll.

Having done relief work in Haiti I can safely say it is a shitpile with wonderful people. I wouldn't want to live there. They don't want to live there. Nobody wants to live there.

Just wish he also roasted the US and Canada in that sketch. He probably did but whoever compiled it cut that part out. He roasted pretty much every other nation on the planet so it would be odd if he left out North America.

I see you Rocket! “Shared” so you take no responsibility for the clip taken out of context to build a strawman argument that defends a tasteless comment with a “both sides are hypocrites” approach. Very James O’ Keefe of you. Even if Conan was wrong, that tire fire Haiti comment...stay classy there guy. Such a fine human being you are.

What’s up with the massive influx of Trumpanzees? what a comedian says shouldn’t be held at the same level of a sitting President.

I live on the periphery of Little Haiti and I'm surrounded by a lot of Haitians. I've found that Jamaicans, Cubans and Puerto Ricans are, in general, walking tour guides of their homelands (even considering what recently happened to PR). With that said, I've still never met a single Haitian that tried to convince me to visit Haiti, despite knowing and being around them the most.

haha I remember seeing bits of this back on his old show. Glad someone compiled it all, some of them are hilarious.

And if you find this offensive then comedy isn't for you.

I don't get why the Haiti bit would be the one to mention of the 40ish counties he roasted? Also, why are suddenly people jumping out and crying about trump again? I've been busy with the winter olympic games, I guess I missed the outrage de jour.

It's a comedy sketch from ten years ago that he probably didn't even write. Not really comparable to the president of the US publicly trashing other countries.

Found a video of Conan being verbally abusive toward his employees. He comes off as a complete bully and jerk. It's time he's held accountable for his behavior.

I mean he is just another celebrity/person in power using the current political climate to get "muh views". Its not really surprising anymore. Just annoyingly transparent.

Yeah no kidding. Im talking about why OP posted the video. You know him going to Haiti (this year) to prove its not a "Shi*hole country". But then only staying in a 5 star hotel. Or how this video proves he dosn't give 2 sh*ts about any of these places. And only went there this year because its the trendy thing to do. i.e. outrage culture.

I can't work out if people are being serious or not, how is a series of jokes not limited to Trumpian shitholes proof of anything?

Jesus, give it a rest.He roasted every country on the planet. It was part of a bit where NBC wouldn’t tell him how many countries his show aired in, so he figured he’d just get people to write him hate mail from every country on the planet that his show aired in.

And seriously? This guy is multi millionaire. Do you think he goes to any country on the planet without staying in a five star hotel?

Trust me, coming from ResetEra to here is a very welcome change. I think most people just don't care enough to read fully and insinuate context.
