The Greatest Dirty Joke Ever Told
Frank Rich argues that the trauma of 9/11 intensified a cultural fight over freedom of expression in America, celebrating Gilbert Gottfried’s infamous Aristocrats routine at the Friars Club roast as a moment of shock therapy that helped a grieving city begin to live again. He uses the documentary The Aristocrats to show how comedians across generations push boundaries, even as their material unsettles power and propriety. Rich then critiques a rising decency police—embodied by Ted Stevens’s threats to regulate language, the censorship surrounding Deadwood, and bipartisan political correctness—that seeks to rewrite American history and culture to fit narrow agendas. He argues that vulgarity and frontier frankness are part of the nation’s birthright, and that suppressing them threatens the very essence of American freedom.
