Given how the US seems so fine with things like strip clubs and gun violence it's amazing just how easily offended they are by bad language.
They would be bloody outraged at how we talk to each other and use profanity in a friendly way and even the C word is used without the vast outrage they have.

Samantha Bee has apologized for calling Ivanka Trump a “feckless banana split” on her show “Full Frontal With Samantha Bee” on Wednesday night.

In a statement to HuffPost, Bee said: “I would like to sincerely apologize to Ivanka Trump and to my viewers for using an expletive on my show to describe her last night. It was inappropriate and inexcusable. I crossed a line, and I deeply regret it.”

The apology comes after White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders singled Bee out for criticism and called the host’s language “vile and vicious.”

“The collective silence by the left and its media allies is appalling,” Sanders said in a statement to The Wrap.

Her disgusting comments and show are not fit for broadcast, and executives at Time Warner and TBS must demonstrate that such explicit profanity about female members of this administration will not be condoned on its network,” the press secretary added.

In a statement to HuffPost, TBS also apologized: “Samantha Bee has taken the right action in apologizing for the vile and inappropriate language she used about Ivanka Trump last night. Those words should not have been aired. It was our mistake too, and we regret it.”

TBS, which airs “Full Frontal,” is a part of media conglomerate Turner, owned by Time Warner. The channel initially had the clip of Bee’s segment available online and has since taken it down.

Watched the piece in question yesterday, loved the whole thing. Woke up to this and was bitterly disappointed. Why the strawberry float should she have to apologise for calling a banana split a banana split?

I'm off to watch Sarah Sanders get roasted at the Correspondents' dinner again

She shouldn’t have to apologise. But the alt-right snowflakes will cry about it for so long that it is probably just easier to say sorry and try and shut them up.

They are still crying about Michelle Wolf’s “smokey eye” comment for strawberry floats sake, they will be banging on about Samantha Bee’s “banana split” (if you pardon the phrase ;) ) for a long long time. While defending and/or ignoring Roseanne.

Hypocritical banana splits.

It was the same with Gammon people, they seem to think it's fine to call people SJW's and snowflakes but got super defence about being called Gammon.

Why aren't they impeaching gooseberry fool Stain Donald Trump for the horrible language used in his low ratings Presidency? A total double standard but that's O.K., he'll be Dead soon and will be for a long time to come!

The implication that he won't be dead forever is quite chilling.

I genuinely don't know why Samantha Bee apologised. Pressure from the network?
