CBS' Giles: 'At Least Say' That Wilmore's WHCD N-Word Was 'Said By a Man of Color'

During MSNBC’s coverage of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday, “CBS Sunday Morning” Contributor Nancy Giles expressed some unease with host Larry Wilmore using two racial slurs during his speech, but stated, “it was said by a man of color, let’s just at least say that.”

After MSNBC host Craig Melvin stated that Wilmore’s speech “was all fun and good, Nancy, until he dropped the n-word.” Giles responded, “That was wild, but look, it was said by a man of color, let’s just at least say that. I mean, he also said the other — the j-word, the jb-word, so.” Giles then expressed discomfort with the language that Wilmore used.
