So throwing around the word "****" in a room with Negroes present is not something you should not do in your opinion therefore not requiring an apology?

Weren't you the one demanding context? Do you actually think a long-time Hollywood guy would throw that word around in a room full of black people? It was clearly in the same context about controversial words.

Oh so you were in that room then. Why didn't you say so?

You seriously want to know what a guiding principle behind apologies is? You apologize when you have done something you should not have done which has caused offense or harm. How hard is that?

Not hard.  The person seems to have done that though.

fired?  depends on how the N word was used.
