Tracy Morgan will have a long road to recovery following surgery on a broken leg Sunday, June 8.
"He has been more responsive, which is an incredibly encouraging sign," publicist Lewis Kay said Sunday.
Morgan was injured Saturday when a big rig Wal-Mart truck hit the Mercedes limo bus he was a passenger in causing it to overturn on the New Jersey Turnpike.
In addition to the broken leg, the 45-year old actor/comedian suffered a broken nose, several broken ribs and a broken femur. He remains in critical condition. Doctors expect to keep him in the hospital for several more weeks.
James "Jimmy Mack" McNair
Morgan's assistant, Jeffrey Millea, and comedian Ardie Fuqua Jr. were also injured and remain hospitalized in critical condition. Comedian James "Jimmy Mack" McNair was killed.
Kevin Roper
Wal-Mart truck driver Kevin Roper has been charged with death by auto and four counts of assault by auto. Reports indicate that he failed to slow for traffic ahead and hit Morgan's limo bus, causing a chain reaction involving two cars, an SUV and another tractor trailer.
The 35-year old driver turned himself in to police on Saturday. He was released on $50,000 bond. He's expected to make a court appearance Monday, June 9. Wal-Mart has placed him on administrative leave.

TRENTON, N.J. (Associated Press) — Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan and two members of his entourage were in critical condition Sunday, a day after a tractor-trailer rammed into his chauffeured limousine bus, setting off a deadly chain-reaction pileup.
The former "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" cast member was returning from a standup show in Delaware early Saturday with six others when the limo bus overturned on the New Jersey Turnpike near Cranberry Township, killing Morgan's mentor and fellow comedian James "Jimmy Mack" McNair. A Wal-Mart truck driver was charged with death by auto and four counts of assault by auto.
James McNair
Jeffrey Millea, 36, of Shelton, Connecticut, and comedian Ardie Fuqua Jr., 43, of Jersey City, were listed in critical condition along with Morgan at Robert Wood Johnson Hospital, hospital spokeswoman Zenaida Mendez said Sunday. Another comedian, Harris Stanton, was treated and released from the hospital Saturday.
The truck driver, 35-year-old Kevin Roper, of Jonesboro, Georgia, apparently failed to slow for traffic ahead and swerved at the last minute to avoid a crash, the Middlesex County Prosecutor's office said.
Instead, the big rig smashed into the back of the Mercedes limo bus, prompting a chain-reaction crash with a second tractor-trailer, an SUV and two cars, authorities said. No one in the other vehicles was injured.
So far, there is nothing to suggest Roper fell asleep or was dozing, state police Sgt. 1st Class Greg Williams told The Associated Press.
Roper, accompanied by his attorney, turned himself in to state police. He was released on $50,000 bail Saturday night, Wal-Mart spokesman David Tovar said Sunday.
Wal-Mart President Bill Simon said in a statement that the company "will take full responsibility" if authorities determine its truck caused the accident.
The National Transportation Safety Board said it was working with state police to look at any issues in the crash related to commercial trucking and limousine safety.
Tyrone Gale, who was driving the limo bus, told ABC News that he was disoriented after the vehicle flipped and could hear Morgan yelling for help.
"I climbed around and heard Tracy screaming for help," Gale said. "I climbed up on the body of the limo bus ... but I couldn't reach them."
Morgan's limo was owned by Atlantic Transportation Services, which said it had one employee behind the wheel and a second in the front passenger seat. Neither was injured.
"Although the investigation is still pending, we concur with the preliminary reports that the accident was caused by another vehicle traveling behind the Atlantic limo bus," the Rehoboth Beach, Delaware-based company said.
Fuqua had tweeted that he was opening for Morgan on Friday night at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino in Delaware. On his Instagram page, Fuqua included a collage of photos from the show.
"This is what it looks like from the stage to see a standing ovation from 1500 people," Fuqua wrote at around midnight Friday. "Then we traveled back to NYC in style in a luxury Mercedes Sprinter. Road life is a good life!"

Fuqua's mother, Doris, said she visited him in the hospital Saturday. The writer-comedian had toured with Morgan for nearly a year, she said.
"We're hoping for the best," Doris Fuqua said, adding that she didn't know how long he may be hospitalized. "It's too early to tell."
McNair, 62, of Peekskill, New York, was a close friend and mentor to Morgan, Morgan's ex-wife, Sabina Morgan, told the New York Daily News. "He was one of the first comedians that took Tracy under his wing," she said. "They were very close."
Royale Watkins, a Los Angeles-based comedian who said he had performed in New York clubs with Morgan and McNair, described McNair as having a big personality.
"There may be guys like Tracy who get the fame and notoriety, but you have people like Jimmy Mack who have kind of energized and fueled cats like Tracy and kept them going on the road," Watkins said.
Morgan, a New York City native, joined "SNL" in 1996 and left to star in "The Tracy Morgan Show" in 2003. That show lasted just one season. In 2006, Morgan found a long-running role on NBC's hit show "30 Rock," which was created by "SNL" co-star Tina Fey. He received an Emmy nomination for best supporting actor for "30 Rock" in 2009.

Justin Bieber is seeking salvation by turning his life over to God in the wake of racist videos leaking to the public.
Two tapes that are several years old show Bieber telling a joke that is offensive to African Americans and singing a song that is equally insulting.
The singer apologized after the joke tape was posted on a British website Sunday, June 1. When the second video came to light several days later showing him singing 'One Less Lonely N*gger" in a parody of his song "One Less Lonely Girl," the 20-year old posted Bible passages on his Instagram account.
Justin's team knew the controversial videos were coming because the person who had them made contact asking for money in exchange for not releasing the tapes. Justin refused to pay and turned to Pastor Carl Lentz last month to atone for his sins.
Lentz told TMZ that "he spent a week doing intense Bible study with Justin." In addition to studying the Bible, the 20-year old started attending church and was recently baptized in a bathtub at a friend's house in New York City.
The singer reportedly decided not to get baptized in a church because he wanted the ceremony kept private and couldn't find a place of worship where he wouldn't be seen.

Dancehall artist Vybz Kartel was recently convicted in Jamaica for the murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams. Various media outlets are reporting that he is cooperating with police to get his sentence reduced.
Vlad TV talked with Lord Jamar and asked him what he thought about these new developments.
"Am I surprised? No," Jamar said. "We don't live in an age where people have honor and codes and shit like that anymore. Everybody goes for self. You could say stop snitching all you want, but the incentive to not snitch is no longer there. Back in the days if you didn't snitch the niggas you was down with would take care of your family and all of that type shit while you was gone. When you come home they [would] look out for you. They doing what they can for you. If they got money they hitting you with a package and all of that type of shit. Putting you back on your feet. Niggas don't don't do shit like that anymore. They don't fucking support each other like they used to. So when shit like this happens why wouldn't a nigga snitch?"

Charlamagne sat down with VladTV and bluntly shared his disappointment with Tyler Perry's films, essentially saying they portray African-Americans in a bad light, and more specifically, make black men seem like horrible people.
He points to the fact that many of Perry's films portray well-to-do black men as no good, abusive, crazy characters, and calls films like "Precious," "For Colored Girls...," and Perry's "Temptation" African-American horror movies.
