Jerry Seinfeld Retracts Comments About Blaming the Left For Chilling Effect on Comedy: ‘I Did Say That. That’s Not True’

While a guest on comedian Tom Papa’s Breaking Bread podcast, Seinfeld took a moment to take back those words, saying to Papa a bit past the 24:00 mark: “There were two things that, I have to say, I regret saying, and that I have to take back.” Papa pressed further, and Seinfeld explained:

So, here’s two things I regret saying and I have to take back: Number one — one of them I didn’t say, but people think I did, so, just the same. I said I don’t play colleges because the kids are too PC and you can’t do comedy for them. Not true. First of all, I never said it, but if you think I said it, it’s not true. I play colleges all the time. I have no problem with kids, performing for them. In fact, I was just at the University of Indiana, Kentucky, we did UT. I mean, I do colleges all the time. So, that perception that I don’t play colleges — wrong. I do, I play them all the time, and it’s not a problem.
