As you can see in the tweet above, the comedian used the n-word several times. On one occasion, he directly quoted Muhammad Ali, the boxing legend, and used a racial slur in his tweet.

To make the situation worse, Jay Mohr defended his actions on Twitter and implied that he did nothing wrong. Additionally, some of the tweets are still publicly available on his official profile, which makes the entire situation even worse.
