Criticism
Mencia has been criticized for both his stand-up act and his television show, perhaps most notably from other comedians. In 2006, Maxim named Mencia as the 12th worst comic of all time. A 2010 Wall Street Journal article noted that Mencia, along with Dane Cook and Jay Leno, were three of the most hated popular stand-ups by fellow comedians. In May 2009, Cracked listed 25 of the comic's actual Twitter posts that they considered to be unintentionally funny.
