Offends the LGBTQ community

Per The U.S. Sun, Carson Daly also offended the LGBTQ community. During his radio show in 2012, he talked about a story about a group of passengers who helped someone who was having a mental breakdown. The incident took place on a JetBlue flight. Passengers tackled Clayton Osbon to the ground after he left his cockpit and stormed into the center aisle to make dangerous comments.

The passengers forced an emergency landing in Amarillo, Texas. One passenger ended up hurt. Carson joked that if the passengers were gay, they wouldn’t have used the same force.

“It was like a bunch of well-trained dudes, thank God,” Carson Daly said at the time. “With my luck, it would be like, ‘This is the flight going to the gay pride parade in San Francisco. ‘Uh, we’re headed down to Vegas for the floral convention.'”
