I'm not a fan of cancel culture. But whatever makes him go away.

Moral of the story.....don't say dumb stuff if you are a celebrity while being recorded. Just not smart. Now they will cancel him. We all need to rally behind him. He has a __ problem and has dealt with __ since a young age. Despite all the cards stacked against him he’s managed to __. What you saw in that horrible, horrible video is not who he is or who he wants to be. We can’t prove it, but nonetheless feel certain that stress from the Covid pandemic was also a factor. He will now seek treatment for __ and will donate money to __. Americans believe in second chances. He has a new album coming out __. Almost all the money made from that record will be donated to __. When we told him he’d need to donate money to __, he said he would only agree to do it if it was a lot of money. This shows his true character, that word he used doesn’t. Thank you.

You’ve got the whole how to spin it playbook down pat. Did you used to be a corporate inner circle PR fixer or something? Btw, did you feel any different when you hit that 6,000 post count recently?

Not sure how he identifies, but he has now fallen a victim to the toxic cancel culture of the modern day USA. I'll have to agree.

If IHeartRadio has a problem with the N word, why are they playing rap music? Hypocrites

Everyone wants to be offended these days.
I hope pulls a Kyle Larson. Dude dropped the N word and now drives for Hendrick.

The word itself is not proper or acceptable, however, in my mind, the intent and context of how the words is used should be taken into consideration.
If he had walked up to another man and called them that out of hate.....I say unless he got curb stomped, he got off lightly.
From what I can see, these were the words of a drunken A-Hole cutting up with friends and that does not deserve a ruined career. He should be checked on it, but not cancelled.
It seems to me he is chasing some demons and it won’t end well, but only he can fix that.

It seems as though Kyle Larson has been reprogrammed and will be allowed to race in nascar this year. Maybe Mr. Wallen can be "helped" as well.

Sure glad I don't have celebrity status of any type. I would be cancelled 10 fold.

The article is fake news. They called him a country music star. There hasn't been a CM star in ages.
He is truly a sick individual.

I guess he can switch to RAP, they use those words all the time. The radio stations don't seem to have a problem with it. There is certainly a double standard concerning the use of some "racial slurs", most of which applies to the "N" word. It's OK for rappers (called recording artists by some) but not for country music singers (also called recording artists by some, depending on the color of dirt they are standing in) like Wallen. I had no clue who he is so I listened to parts of a few songs on Youtube. He's got the Nashville sound, which explains why I never heard of him. I'm not condoning what he did or said. I think that word, if considered a slur by some African American folks, should not be used by anybody regardless of the color of their skin. And the immediate response to cancel out Wallen seems a bit harsh. I don't think any black artist has been canceled for using that word. I don't think any black comedian has been canceled for using that word. And on a different level, the Muslim representative from Michigan, Rashida Tlaib, was not canceled for saying, "Let's impeach the MFer" just after Trump was elected in 2016. That sounds a bit offensive to me, but she's still around. My take, double standards are OK, depending on who the "offending party" is.
Family is everything! Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.
