Steve Harvey Is Not Apologizing For Flint Water Joke

Dolce & Gabbana - Front Row - Milan Men's Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2017/18

As we previously reported,  Steve Harvey, was complaining about the Cleveland Cavaliers’ loss in the NBA finals to the Golden State Warriors when a caller started giving him a hard time. This happed on The Steve Harvey Morning Show. “You from Flint?” Harvey asked, according to listener accounts of the interaction, in a USA Today story. “That’s why y’all ain’t even got clean water. When was the last time you touched water and it didn’t have lead in it?” Before the caller hung up, in an audio portion that was taped, Harvey said “one more thing. … Enjoy your nice brown glass of water.” Steve addressed the controversy telling an AJC reporter he didn’t see anything wrong with the joke because it was just basketball trash talk between himself and the caller. “The uproar came. This is sort of crazy. It was out of context.  I was just talking to this one guy.” “I don’t know if I’ll be able to tell jokes. I can’t say nothing about nobody!”
