no mention of what the jokes were at all
It's always the same jokes.
They mentioned they were anti-trans and anti-vax. They didn't repeat them because there is no need to repeat offensive jokes. I'm sure there are Rob Schneider routines on YouTube if you're curious.
Yes I need to know in order to judge them for myself
Again, I am sure there are Rob Schnieder routines on YouTube if you're curious and I doubt he made trans and vaccine jokes just this one time. Why do you need to know the specific jokes he made? Why isn't the fact that the audience booed the organization gave a sincere apology enough evidence for you that his jokes offended a bunch of people and were not appropriate for the venue?
at least citing it somehow would support what the article is saying
Yet again, you can search for him on YouTube. I have no idea why you need to know whether or not you would be offended by his jokes when you weren't even there.
