Who is Scott Adams: Dilbert dropped by newspapers over creator’s racist remark

Who is Scott Adams: Several newspapers across the United States are removing the “Dilbert” comic strip after creator Scott Adams said last week that white people should “get the f— away” from Black people.

The largest newspaper publisher in the United States, Gannett, has announced it will no longer publish the workplace comic “effective immediately.”

“Recently made discriminatory remarks by the creator, Scott Adams, have influenced our decision to cease publishing his comic. While we respect and support free speech, his views do not align with our editorial or business values,” the USA Today Network said in a statement to The New York Post on Saturday.

“At Gannett, we strive to maintain a respectful and equitable environment for the diverse communities we serve across the nation.”

Adams reacted to the move against Dilbert in the most recent episode of his podcast, which was published on Friday: “Was it something I said?”

Adams says in the introduction, “There has never been a better time to live.” “Has anyone recently noticed anything in the news about me?”

Adams, in response to his name trending on Twitter, exclaimed, “Oh no, my enemies are sending me a great deal of energy.” Oh no, what am I going to do with all this attention?
