The word “bigot” has been bandied about a lot since “All in the Family”’s CBS premiere in CBS in 1970, & America had its 1st taste of political & social satire on sitcom. Jonathon Winters chimed in w/ character whose name was “Bigot” - pronounced “Bee-SHOW.” 1/34
I wanted to make sure I had the definition of “bigot” correct. The Oxford English Dictionary, 1971 ed.: “A hypocritical professor of religion.” (And “professor” does not mean member of a college faculty.) 4/34
