I mean this isn't a case of someone nitpicking old tweets to find some remotely cancellable, that John Roderick guy is saying blatantly white nationalist shit.

OOF that tweet isn't even subtle. Like, I get its 8 years ago, but jeez, I thought most of the racists on the internet were at least smart enough to not be that direct?

I can't imagine it'll really cost Jennings Jeopardy, but I hope doesn't.

tf is bean dad
Some guy in a band on Twitter shared a story where his hungry 9 year old daughter wanted some beans and didnt know how to open the can. He realized he hadnt taught her how to use the can opener, so instead of showing her how he went on a six hour journey with his hungry, crying child and tried to point her in the right direction to figure out how can openers work herself.

He thought this was a great teaching moment and good parenting, most other people dont see a 6 hour ordeal of crying child not understanding how a fairly complicated tool works as good parenting. Twitter proceeds to roast and dubbed him Bean Dad.

But specific to the topic, he's also made several antisemitic tweets, and tried to use "it's just satirical" defense.

Jeopardy producers could have chosen LeVar Burton and the biggest scandal they'd have to worry about him being involved in would be what his favorite children's book is or something smh.
