caught flak from liberal Twitter for the humor in his new Netflix comedy special, but some of his fellow comedians said he hit it out of the park.
Comedian Chris Rock's new Netflix stand-up special addressed a lot more than just getting slapped by Will Smith. Liberal Twitter erupted over Rock's set, which often targeted"wokeness" and called major companies hypocrites for putting out empty statements in support of left-leaning political causes.
"He was also clearly still VERY angry about the slap heard round the world," Foster told Fox News Digital."He hasn't processed it, and it came off just as angry." Foster was among those upset by Rock's jokes about abortion. At one point, he talked about his support for women's rights and that he'd likely paid for more abortions than any woman in his audience.
