"McNear, the author of a recent book about "Jeopardy!" and the late host Alex Trebek, found Richards' old podcast, for example, in which he made derogatory remarks about little people, Jews, people receiving unemployment benefits and sexist comments about women.

He "repeatedly used offensive language and disparaged women's bodies," McNear reported."

The volume of outrage that followed the host announcement was roughly 5000 times the response to the article about his past behaviors. If I had to guess why he’s out…

That sounds like an exaggeration of what McNear's article actually said, which was that he called the non-LP but shorter than average height producer of his podcast a word that's no longer PC for LPs.

Without knowing any of the story about him I thought he was pretty good hosting. Not the best, but acceptable. My guess is the biggest outrage is the perception that the fix was in and that the last 8 months was just a charade before he gave himself the job.

Especially with Buzzy Cohen sitting there.

For a minute I thought they picked Michael Richards from Seinfeld, who also has a history of using problematic language.
