Recently Jerry Seinfeld and other prominent comedians said they will no longer perform at colleges and universities because they feel the environment is too politically correct. Vanity Fair asked Sarah Silverman about this topic and she had a different perspective. While she said it is impossible to not offend everyone, she said it is important to stay with the times and consider people’s feelings. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

“Jerry Seinfeld set off a bit of a firestorm earlier this year when he said he had stopped performing comedy at colleges because the students were generally too “politically correct.” It is a message that has been echoed by everyone from Chris Rock and Jay Leno to Bill Maher and Colin Quinn. But comedian Sarah Silverman has a different view.

Speaking to Vanity Fair from the Toronto Film Festival this week, where she is promoting her new film I Smile Back, Silverman said she didn’t agree with everything her fellow comedians have said on the issue.

“To a degree, everyone’s going to be offended by something, so you can’t just decide on your material based on not offending anyone,” she conceded. “But, I do think it’s important, as a comedian, as a human, to change with the times.” Silverman added, “I think it’s a sign of being old if you’re put off by that.”
