Rumour Mill: Richards not Semite-y fine?

Report by Tyler "Ty" Deschanel

In a further shocking twist to the Michael Richards scandal, it has emerged that this was not the only time that the former Seinfeld funny man turned David Duke devotee has made highly racist remarks.

Two Los Angeles residents have claimed that Michael Richards lashed out at the Jewish faith last Spring at L.A. comedy club, The Improv.

Carol Oschin and J.P. Fillet say they were at The Improv on April 22 when Richards took the stage. They say that in the middle of Richards' skit, a man in the audience said something to the comedian, when Richards allegedly launched into an anti-Semitic rant. According to Oschin, Richards screamed at the audience member, "You f***ing Jew! You people are the cause of Jesus dying!"

Oschin says the rant continued and Richards stormed off the stage. Oschin and Fillet say that, at first, they thought Richards' tirade was part of his act, but claim that it quickly became apparent it was not. "We were waiting for him to say "Giddy Up!" but he didn't and then later when we saw him dressed in full Nazi costume as left the venue, we knew he was serious!"

Richards' publicist, Howard Rubenstein, confirmed to TMZ.com that Richards did make derogatory comments about Jews, but says it was part of his act. Rubenstein says Richards told him, "I'm not anti-Semitic. I was playing a role and poking fun at the rednecks."

Early reports indicate that Richards TV co-star and prominent sarcastic Jew, Jerry Seinfeld has now changed his stance on Richards and also stripped him of his right to royalties from the hit 90's show. Seinfeld was overheard chuckling to himself: "More money for me! He he he!"

Meanwhile his "Jerry Seinfeld & Chris Rock Humanity Against Michael Richards Comedy Tour" has now sold out all over New York but alas is not repeating it's success in the south where the tour has not sold a single ticket. Bizarrely down south the "Society For Michael Richards Tour" has already sold out.

VIN's earlier suggestion that Richards and fellow anti Semite Mel Gibson should team up now seems more apt than ever! VIN would also suggest that Richards should fire his publicist!
