BIG BIRD’S TWEETS REVEAL HISTORY OF OFFENSIVE RHETORIC, QUESTIONABLE AFFILIATIONS:

Big Bird’s other problematic “friends” include controversial TV hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Ellen DeGeneres. Kimmel was forced last year to issue what the Los Angeles Times described as a “lame” apology for repeatedly wearing blackface in his comedy performances. DeGeneres, meanwhile, has been accused of presiding over a “toxic work culture” in which employees are routinely subjected to “racism, fear, and intimidation.”

On the set of Sesame Street, the giant yellow bird has mingled with the likes of convicted rapist Bill Cosby, disgraced Hollywood pervert Kevin Spacey, and Jeopardy! champion Ken Jennings, who once argued there was “nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair,” among other offensive tweets that precluded him from succeeding Alex Trebek as host of the popular quiz show.

Yes, it’s satire — or is it?
