Comedian Aziz Ansari deserves a gold star for what he just said about his recent beef with billionaire media magnate Rupert Murdoch.
A little background: Rupert Murdoch (owner of just about everything on earth) tweeted the following message after the Charlie Hebdo massacre:
Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible.
— Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) January 10, 2015 I'm trying to ignore the way he spelled "Muslims." I'm failing miserably.
Aziz Ansari, who grew up in a Muslim household, was understandably upset. And he released a string of tweets showing how flawed that logic is.
When he talked about it on an episode of "The Late Show With David Letterman," Dave had to give credit where it was due, and he gave Aziz a hand. Here are some of the best #RupertsFault tweets from Aziz himself:
All Christian militia people and anyone they've hurt. #RupertsFault
— Aziz Ansari (@azizansari) January 12, 2015 SHAME RUPERT SHAME RT @mt_hardison .@azizansari Christian rock music. #RupertsFault
— Aziz Ansari (@azizansari) January 12, 2015 Anytime a Christian person rear ended your car. #RupertsFault
— Aziz Ansari (@azizansari) January 12, 2015 And my favorite:
. @rupertmurdoch is Christian just like Mark David Chapman who shot John Lennon. Why didn't Rupert stop it? #RupertsFault
— Aziz Ansari (@azizansari) January 12, 2015 Good stuff, Aziz. Stay hilariously relevant.
