Did Jerry Lewis say the F word during his telethon? - VIDEO

by Bob Sassone, posted Sep 3rd 2007 9:40PM

Jerry Lewis - 2005No, not that F word. The other one. The one that's a derogatory word for a gay person.

Check out the video at Breitbart. In the 18th hour of his annual MDA Telethon, Lewis walks about the stage and the audience making comments on various people, and at one point stops and talks about the cameraman and his family (supposedly). He says "your family has come to see you...you remember Bart, your oldest son...Jesse, the illiterate f****t..." The audience laughs and moans a bit, but I'm trying to figure out exactly what Lewis says here. Does he actually say that word, or does he start to say "fatty" or something similar? You make the call.

Whatever he says, it's an odd piece of video for sure. I guess that what happens when you're up for 18 hours.

UPDATE: Video is embedded after the jump.

UPDATE #2: He admits he did use the word, and has apologized.

He raised all that money for the MDA and you lash out at him for telling a politically incorrect joke? What is wrong with you? You people make me SICK!

i bet he did say it. what does jerry lewis care about.. certainly not his "kids" he made tons of comments during the telethon. this is just one of them. at press conferences he doesnt even look at the kids .. nothing .. no emotion. he cannot wait to get out.. just google "jerry's orphans" and find out about jerrys real ways

Hey look I'm on TV... I think I will call the camera a nigger. You heard me you nigger child camera!

If he said that he would have been run over by every "civil rights" group there is. But because he only said faggot, who cares? No one likes those god damn ass fuckers anyway.

*rolleyes*

It sickens me the way people are and are aloud to act on TV.

I love Jerry Lewis and atleast he has the guts to tell it like it is.
More people in the world need to be less afraid to speak.

Keep it up Jerry

You folks are a bunch of hypocrites in judging this gentleman as much as he has done. Why cast a stone as if you "f" were perfect and don't have a life. Can't you give a person a break? I use the word occasionally as a joke and don't give it a second thought. Humor is one thing and that's ALL it was. Boy what a bunch of idiots and their remarks here.

People get over it! He started to say something but stopped. I am sure the words have come out of your mouth before. Lets get your own lives and move on. Maybe YOU all should be dedicating your time to helping charities and not bashing people.

I'm with #18 - didn't see it, but judging from your f*****t abbreviation I swear the first thought in my head was that he called him a f*ckwit. Not really sure what that says about us. :)

Given that the Gay and Lesbian Alliance people are all over him now, it doesn't really matter what he said, he's going to be branded a homophobe and fired from Grey's Anatomy. That's how it always ends.

So what if he said fag or faggot? A faggot is simplty a bundle of sticks strung together as kindling.

And fags call oneanother fag all the time. If they cal call each other fags, why can't non-fags call fags fags?
