Republicans for Harris are saying the quiet part out loud.

Between Dave Attell and André 3000, we're in a golden age of artists exploring their "flute" period.

BTW, I don't think the followup article was "subsequent reporting." It was Minhaj's own statement -- which provided an alternative look at one bit -- but for me, confirmed the worst offenses mentioned in the original article.
Key paragraph of the variety article is here:

Many comics embellish and exaggerate, but most of the comics I know feel as I do that this is over the line. He's lying about real people, and making up anecdotes for more than comic effect -- getting audience reactions and sympathies with stories he made up.
Listen, if the audience understands that the stage "Hassan Minhaj" is a fictional character who entertains with fiction, then fine -- embellish away. But I think it's clear that his art kind of requires it to be true.

No mention of the many irresponsible fabrications in Hasan Minhaj’s Homecoming King?
