The comedian and "30 Rock" actor apologized Friday to his fans and the gay and lesbian community for what he called "my choice of words" during his June 3 appearance at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium.
A Facebook account posted by an audience member said Morgan's stand-up performance was full of homophobic references. The Ryman Auditorium issued its own apology afterward for Morgan's behavior.
Morgan denies being a hateful person. He acknowledged that "even in a comedy club" what he said went too far "and was not funny in any context."
