This entire paragraph makes no sense - in view of the fact that the circumstances described resulted from the lamentable Twitter outburst, rather than arising subsequently. (The paragraph makes it sound like the show was already suffering before the outburst.)

Roseanne Barr Responds to Critics After Controversial Chick-fil-A Tweet
6:04 PM PDT 7/26/2012 by Paul Bond
The comedienne tweeted that anyone who eats at the fast food chain, which does not support gay marriage, “deserves to get cancer that is sure to come from eating antibiotic filled tortured chickens 4Christ.”
Roseanne Barr was busy Thursday re-tweeting a hailstorm of criticism heaped her way since she angered Christians on Wednesday for tweeting that people who eat at Chick fil-A deserve to get cancer.
Her attack on the chicken restaurant stems from the company’s president and COO Dan Cathy recently proclaiming that the company is run on Biblical principles, including opposition to gay marriage.

Barr, though, supports same-sex marriage and apparently did not take kindly to Cathy’s statement.
“Anyone who eats Shit Fil-A deserves to get the cancer that is sure to come from eating antibiotic filled tortured chickens 4Christ,” the comedienne tweeted Wednesday.
After a Twitter-storm erupted, in which people accused her of wishing cancer on Christians and supporters of Chick-fil-A, Barr tweeted: “Christian liars: I never wished cancer on you at all – jesus will punish u 4 ur deceit – I said processed foods cause cancer — #chickfilA.”
But Twitter users responded by throwing her original tweet back at her and accusing her of being the liar, until Barr apologized and clarified her position over a series of subsequent tweets.
