Baker, who performs under the name Unknown Hinson, responded to the news that Parton was voicing her support for Black Lives Matter by posting on Facebook that the country music icon was a “freak titted, old Southern bimbo” and a “slut.” In another post, he wrote “HAVE FUN [sic] forsaking your own race, culture, and heritage.” Squidbillies creators Jim Fortier and Dave Willis announced Baker's firing Sunday on Twitter. "We’re aware of the extremely offensive and derogatory social media posts made late last week by Stuart D. Baker,” they wrote. “The views he expressed do not reflect our own personal values or the values of the show that we and many others have worked hard to produce over the past 15 years. For those reasons, production of Squidbillies will continue without Mr. Baker, effective immediately.”
