UTA Silent as Uproar Over Tony Hinchcliffe's Trump Rally Jokes Continues, Joaquin Castro 'Concerned' by Agency's Inaction | ExclusiveBy Umberto Gonzalez Tony Hinchcliffe’s racist jokes about Puerto Ricans and Latinos at a weekend Trump rally drew the ire of many this week, but UTA —the agency that represents the comedian — remains silent.
