LOS ANGELES (AP) - Two men who say they were insulted by actor-comedian Michael Richards during his racist rant at a comedy club want a personal apology and maybe some money…
According to their attorney, Gloria Allred, they were ordering drinks when Richards berated them for interrupting his act.
... Allred complained Friday that [Richards] “has not apologized to his victims directly, face to face, man to man.”
...Allred, speaking by phone from Colorado, said Richards should meet McBride and Doss in front of a retired judge to “acknowledge his behavior and to apologize to them” and allow the judge to decide on monetary compensation.
“It’s not enough to say ‘I’m sorry,’” she said.She did not mention a specific figure, but pitched the idea as a way for the comic to avoid a lawsuit.
“Our clients were vulnerable,” Allred said. “He went after them. He singled them out and he taunted them, and he did it in a closed room where they were captive.”
The video of Richards’ outburst shows several people getting up and walking out *cough* as he shouts at the audience.
I ferget—do ya use vodka or gin in a “You Ain’t Funny, Cracker!”
