The former host of "The Bachelor" who asked for "grace" from the cancel culture mob has now officially become its latest victim.
Chris Harrison will not be returning to his long-time hosting gig of "The Bachelor" franchise, according to the Daily Wire. Harrison has hosted the show since 2002 and has also hosted all of the spin-offs like "The Bachelorette" and "Bachelor in Paradise." Harrison came to the defense of former contestant Rachael Kirkconnell and said she deserved time to explain a controversial picture of her at an "antebellum"-themed fraternity event in 2018.
When a picture emerged of Kickconnell dressed as a "Southern belle" in 2018, Harrison said that the public should not be "judge, jury, and executioner" and asked for time and "grace."
In reaction to this, Harrison was viciously attacked by activists and cancel culture crusaders forced the television personality to step aside "for a period of time" from his signature hosting spot. Now, ABC and Warner have announced that Harrison will not be coming back and said the show's new host would be aimed at "improving BIPOC representation."
"We are dedicated to improving the BIPOC representation of our crew, including among the executive producer ranks," Warner and ABC announced via press statement. "These are important steps in effecting fundamental change so that our franchise is a celebration of love that is reflective of our world."
Matt James, who was the sought-after bachelor during the season of controversy, first distanced himself from that season's winner and therefore his fiancé to-be. James recently said that they are back together and enjoying romantic activities together, such as having "critical conversations" about what it means to be an "ally." He also said that he is committed to a "path of anti-racism."
Harrison went on an apology tour after leaving "The Bachelor," where he told Good Morning America he is taking lessons with a "race educator."
"I am saddened and shocked at how insensitive I was in that interview, and I didn’t speak from my heart," Harrison told Good Morning America host Michael Strahan. "That is to say I stand against all forms of racism, and I am deeply sorry. I'm sorry to Rachel Lindsay, and I'm sorry to the Black community."
