The 2020 presidential campaign of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., hired a video creator -- but fired him just a day later -- after old politically incorrect comedy videos that were deemed offensive turned up on YouTube. The staffer, Matt Orfalea, had apologized Monday for some of the videos, including one that supposedly sexualized Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. “When I was about 20 yrs old, I edited MLK audio, to expose how easily media can completely misrepresent reality. It’s not acceptable and I’m sorry for it.”He concluded: “Despite my thoughtless past use of the word ‘retarded’, I hold absolutely no prejudice toward anyone with special needs. In fact, I live happily with my adult special needs younger brother.”Fox News' Pat Ward contributed to this report.
