You are not an iota important as you think you are. Most people dont even lnow who you are. You were on the way out and you had to create a pathetic excuse ( and poorly executed) to stay in the spot light. Now be a man and own it. You've been CAUGHT. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Liar. Needs to be arrested and charged.

Faking a Hate Crime is a Hate Crime and should be prosecuted as such.

The truth will come out.

Well that's one way to spin it, EnemyOfThePeople.

Thats not Okay. Thats Fraud! How about tossing him in Jail so he can have time to think about what he did. Not just a day. Not just a week. But some actual time spent investigating should equal days in jail.

We all got Milli Vanilli’ed...

See you want publicity there go

This guy lied to gain publicity, race bait & create more hate. His plan fell apart as soon as it began. LockUpJussieSmollett

He tried to imply they were white guys at first. His show is going down the tubes. So he staged this for publicity. Sounds like a Spike Lee idea. Always play the race card.

He did end up in the hospital.

Don't be so cryptic. Jussie is now being investigated.

Those god damn White Supremacists in Chicago, walking at 2am in frigid polar vortex , What's this world coming too🤭

Enough is enough all these people avocet and make up story of a heat crime should be persecuted for insight heat waisting the time of the law enforcement and every one knew crying wolf story !!!!

Liberals now

Put “attack” in scare quotes.

He staged a hate crime to gin up hate... Seems to me that he has the racist issues..

I am still hoping that Smollett didn't fabricate this. He's so talented, why would he do it?

AKA He lied.

My heart goes out to him. So Jussie didn't hand over the phone record of the call he had with the manager during the attack? It's either yes or no? If no, why not? Seems to be such a simple thing. Redact everything else but that ONE phone call with his manager. Done! I’m calling bullshit
