Chris Rock on THR Essay: ?I?m Just Stating the Facts?

He has a reputation for being outspoken, and when Chris Rock penned an essay for The Hollywood Reporter on what it?s like to be black in the entertainment industry, he didn?t hold back.

The popular comedian explained, "I don't look at it as even being political. I'm just stating the facts. I'm not trying to be political at all, that's (Jon) Stewart, that's (Bill) Maher, that's, you know, not me.?

Rock previously questioned how a ?liberal town? like Hollywood could also be ?kind of racist.? ?Hollywood is a white industry. Just as the NBA is a black industry.?

As for the grand jury?s decision this week not to press charges against a white police officer who choked a black Staten Island man to death last summer, Chris explained, ?It?s sad when something is on videotape. It?s sad.?
