“I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has,” Scott Adams said Monday during an episode of his YouTube show, 'Real Coffee with Scott Adams.' “So, I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones.” He made the announcement after extending his “respect and compassion and sympathy” for Biden and his family.

Adams, who died today (https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/arts/scott-adams-dead.html) after announcing he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer last May and had months to live, used his experience as a bank and phone company middle manager to create Dilbert. Launched in 1989, the daily comic strip satire of corporate life became a sensation but was dropped by more than 1,000 newspapers after he made racist comments (https://edition.cnn.com/2023/02/25/business/dilbert-comic-strip-racist-tirade) on his podcast in 2023. From January 1999 to July 2000, Dilbert aired as an animated series (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBZgfrxGTFA) on UPN that Adams created with Seinfeld legend Larry Charles. Dilbert also became the star of a $30 million advertising campaign for Office Depot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNQfFBHozLE) in 1997. Adams suggested that Dilbert gave voice to isolated cubicle dwellers. “That’s the amazing thing I found when I went on line a couple of years ago,” he told The New York Times in 1995. “I heard from all these people who thought that they were the only ones, that they were in this unique, absurd situation. That they couldn’t talk about their situation because no one would believe it.” As The New York Times’ Richard Sandomir notes, “over the years, Mr. Adams made remarks about women and Jews that brought him negative attention outside the silo of beloved cartoonist. He used his podcast, Real Coffee With Scott Adams, to offer free-flowing commentary on the news, a platform that led to the comic strip’s downfall. In February 2023, he was discussing a new Rasmussen Reports poll that found that only 53 percent of Black Americans agreed with the statement, ‘It’s OK to be white,’ a phrase that has been promoted by white supremacists, according to the Anti-Defamation League.”
