Just weeks after his demand letter to staff made rounds on the internet, Steve Harvey gifted Twitter with another reason to rip into him.
The TV host and comedian is being roasted on Twitter for comments he made Wednesday about the water crisis in Flint, Michigan during a radio interview on the "Steve Harvey Morning Show."
A caller dialed into the show during a discussion about the 2017 NBA finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Though Golden State won the championship, Harvey sided with Cleveland, to which the caller insisted the Cavaliers didn't "deserve jack."

"You from Flint? ... That's why y'all ain't even got clean water. When was the last time you touched water and it didn't have lead in it?" Harvey said.
He continued: "I wasn't talking about the city of Flint, I was talking about him. ... He going to call in, say Cleveland don't deserve jack, and he over there bathing in all that silver water."
