Trevor Noah, the newly appointed host of The Daily Show, has allegedly written some questionable tweets in his past, with several of them containing content that might be considered anti-semitic. It is possible that these posts have not been fully considered by the people who offered him the job. If public outcry is loud enough, his new job might be in jeopardy and he would join other comedians who were Facebook fired for poor taste in jokes.
The screenshots below are per the original story at Salon:
Noah is mixed-race, with a half-Jewish Xhosa mother and Swiss father, and much of his material centers on the issue of race. However, people have noticed that a slew of of Noah’s tweets — mostly posted in 2012 and prior — include unfunny, questionably offensive jokes about Jews and women.
