<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/usa-today" target="_blank" rel="noopener">USA Today</a> and Cleveland.com announced they will no longer run the &#8220;Dilbert&#8221; cartoons in newspapers over comments creator <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_dwx7p8eCc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scott Adams</a> recently made concerning race.</p>
<p>In a &#8220;Real Coffee with Scott Adams&#8221; video posted Wednesday, Adams discussed a Rasmussen poll that nearly half of black Americans were unable to agree with the phrase, &#8220;It&#8217;s okay to be white.&#8221; Adams&#8217; video, in which he suggested the poll results indicate that blacks are a &#8220;hate group,&#8221; went viral.</p>
<p>&#8220;The USA Today network will no longer publish the Dilbert comic due to recent discriminatory comments by its creator,&#8221; Gannett said in a statement Friday, adding, <span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">&#8220;At [Gannett]</span><span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">, we lead with inclusion and strive to maintain a respectful and equitable environment for the diverse communities we serve nationwide.&#8221; </span></p>

<p>Cleveland’s The Plain Dealer similarly said Friday that “Dilbert” will no longer be published in any of its papers over Adams’ “racist rant.”</p>
<p class="paragraph larva // lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m ">“This is not a difficult decision,” Plain Dealer/Cleveland.com VP of content Chris Quinn <a href="https://variety.com/2023/digital/news/dilbert-canceled-newspapers-scott-adams-racist-1235535643/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. “We are not a home for those who espouse racism. We certainly do not want to provide them with financial support.&#8221;</p>
<p class="paragraph larva // lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m ">&#8220;Until we decide what to replace ‘Dilbert’ with, you’ll likely see a gray box where it has been appearing,” he added.</p>
<p>Adams in the video joked that he&#8217;s been &#8220;identifying as black&#8221; for some time, but must have accidentally joined a &#8220;hate group,&#8221; based on a recent Rasmussen poll. The poll, which surveyed 1,000 people, showed that 53% of black people agreed with the statement &#8220;It&#8217;s okay to be white,&#8221; leaving 47% unable to say they agree.</p>
<p>“Based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people. Just get the f*** away,” Adams continued, after commenting further on race relations and crime. “Wherever you have to go, just get away. Because there’s no fixing this. This can’t be fixed. So I don’t think it makes any sense as a white citizen of America to try to help black citizens anymore. It doesn’t make sense. There’s no longer a rational impulse. So I’m going to back off on being helpful to black America because it doesn’t seem like it pays off.”</p>
<p>Adams on Saturday morning reacted to the backlash online.</p>
<p>&#8220;<span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">A lot of people are angry at me today but I haven&#8217;t yet heard anyone disagree. I make two main points: 1. Treat everyone as an individual (no discrimination). 2. Avoid any group that doesn&#8217;t respect you. Does anyone think that is bad advice?&#8221; he wrote. </span></p>

<p>Adams also seemed to endorse a reaction video from Hotep Jesus, who said the Rasmussen poll was likely a tiny sample, not reliable, and intended to &#8220;trigger&#8221; people and divide. The pair will address the controversy later on Saturday in a live video.</p>
