This is what that reporter wrote about the tweets. It is 10% of the article that was published by word count and appeared in the middle of the article, not the end as the reporter claims. I'll leave it to people to draw their own conclusions: A routine background check of King's social media revealed two racist jokes, one comparing black mothers to gorillas and another making light of black people killed in the holocaust. The joke tweets date back to 2012, when King was a 16-year-old high school student. Register editor:Here’s how we reported on Carson King’s tweets When asked about the tweets, King was remorseful and thanked the Register for pointing them out, saying they made him "sick." He has since deleted them. "That’s not something that I’m proud of at all," he told the Register during the day Tuesday. Tuesday evening, King spoke to local television stations about the now-deleted tweets. "I am embarrassed and stunned to reflect on what I thought was funny when I was 16-year-old," he said in a statement posted by WHO-TV. "I want to sincerely apologize." He also read the statement in a video posted by KCCI-TV. Anheuser-Busch InBev, Busch Light's parent company, announced in a statement Tuesday night that they will "have no further association with [King]," though they will honor their agreement to match the funds for the children's hospital.
