Just came across this Hasan Minhaj controversy. It’s wild that he felt the need to explain himself, but his response really is an excellent watch. Most comedians’ material isn’t 100% factual, nor should we expect it to. A non-story in my opinion.

My Response to The New Yorker article.

@kevin the original article came across as a a journalist angry that comedians are doing their job better than they are, and being respected as more reliable sources of truth. But Hasan explaining himself feels like a tutorial for the younger generation on how stand-up comedy works vs. political comedy.
