'Real Time' host Bill Maher discusses how he isn't immune to cancel culture, his changing audience and the current state of comedy during an interview with CNN.
Maher told CNN's Jake Tapper that his studio audience used to"always" boo him whenever they heard something they thought was objectionable because they were"more woke than I was." However, he said that has stopped in recent years.
Maher acknowledged that he has"lost fans over the years" because he doesn't always say what they want to hear but stressed"that's my ultimate bond with the audience." "That's not what Johnny Carson did, that's not what David Letterman did, that's not what Jay Leno did, and I said, ‘Well, let’s give it a try,'" Maher chuckled."Maybe the people are a little more sophisticated than you’re giving them credit for and they can actually take it, that a guy who is on TV, they don’t always agree with him, but they still like him. Just like in life. You don’t always agree with your friends on everything.
