USA Today reports that the report first aired Sunday on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360, and a witness says a Friday night appearance by Richards at the Los Angeles Laugh Factory got ugly fast when Richards responded to hecklers by screaming at the audience, shouting a racial slur repeatedly and clearly referencing lynching.
TMZ now has the shocking video online.
The AOL entertainment web site notes that the camera started had just stated rolling just as Richards began his attack, screaming at one of the men hurling expletives and telling the man what would have happened if this had been "fifty years ago."

He then goes into an "n-word" marathon. It was a sad display.
Directing his anger at one of the men, Richards said, "Throw his a-- out," and said, "He's a "n-word" five times.
In response to the tirade, one of men said, "That''s un called for -- ain't necessary," TMZ said. Was he ever correct.

After the three-minute tirade concluded, several audience members hit the exits, the Web site said.
Richards played Kramer on "Seinfeld" from 1989 to 1998. He also starred in 2000's "The Michael Richards Show," which was canceled during its first season..
