The Onion Apologizes for 'Crude' Quvenzhane Wallis Tweet
The Onion has apologized for an incendiary tweet about Beasts of the Southern Wild star Quvenzhané Wallis during last night's Academy Awards, with CEO Steve Hannah offering a "personal apology" on Facebook to the nine-year-old actress.
"It was crude and offensive – not to mention inconsistent with The Onion's commitment to parody and satire, however biting," Hannah wrote. "No person should be subjected to such a senseless, humorless comment masquerading as satire." The tweet, since deleted, read, "Everyone else seems afraid to say it, but that Quvenzhané Wallis is kind of a c***, right?...
