John Schnatter claimed he’s been trying to remove the N-word from his vocabulary during the last 20 months. “We’ve had three goals for the last 20 months: To get rid of this N-word in my vocabulary and dictionary, and everything else, because it’s just not true,” Schnatter said in the Friday interview, adding that his other two goals were to “figure out how they did this, and get on with my life.”īut Schnatter sought to clear up his comments after a clip from the interview went viral on Twitter, where many commenters wondered why it was taking him so long to stop using a racist slur many people easily avoid.

Schnatter discussed that alleged plot in a recent interview with the right-wing One America News Network that led some viewers to think he had made a habit of using the verboten word that he was now trying to break. He’s since accused Papa John’s and an ad agency of trying to paint him as a racist and force him out. In 2018, Schnatter famously resigned as chairman of the company he founded amid a backlash over his use of the N-word on a conference call. Papa John’s founder John Schnatter said he’s trying to “get rid of this N-word” in his vocabulary after his use of the slur forced him to cut ties with the pizza chain.
