Breaking: Shane Gillis has been fired by 'Saturday Night Live' just days after his hiring was announced. The show says its vetting process 'was not up to our standard.”

“We want SNL to have a variety of voices and points of view within the show, and we hired Shane on the strength of his talent as a comedian and his impressive audition for SNL. We were not aware of his prior remarks that have surfaced over the past few days. The language he used is offensive, hurtful and unacceptable. We are sorry that we did not see these clips earlier, and that our vetting process was not up to our standard.”“I’m a comedian who was funny enough to get SNL.
