Roseanne recently signed a contract for two more seasons with ABC, so if she wants to fight on a “breach of contract” grounds she certainly can (whether she wins or not depends on how strong the morality clause is). Either way, my guess is that ABC will probably throw a few million at her to make her go away, the last thing they want is this fiasco to drag on in the courts....

Could she sue ABC’s breech of contract based on Americans With Disabilities Act? She said the “tweet” was an adverse reaction to a prescribed medication - Ambirin. Also heard on radio she acknowledges psychological illness — multiple personality syndrome... Did ABC make sufficient accommodation to this known medical condition?

Love to see liberals being beaten up with their own legislation!

Morality clause? That's gotta be a joke. Since when did the marauding liberal media give a fig about "morality?

She’s a comedian. Jokes/humor is protected speech. Now if Roseanne had called Ivanka Trump a “cunt” THEN they would have grounds.

Google search headline

“Samantha Bee calls Ivanka Trump a ‘cunt”

[[(just kidding, but how do I unsee it?)]]

Considering the vile nasty crap that liberals say about trump- evanka, Melania etc, and no one getting fired for gt them- I’d say the morality clause isn’t very strong- used to be there were certain words you could not say on TV- single beds were a no no between married couples- (had to have to separate beds) men could not kiss women that weren’t their spouse in the movie- etc- Now we have ‘comedians’ holding up bloody heads and using the most vile disgusting words imaginable as common every day language on their shows

ABC is just playing the selective moral outrage game because a black person/muslim was involved as the ‘victim’- Had it been said about a Christian black conservative person- ABC would not have canceled the show

Yep. The other cast members, writers, producers, key grips and such will want theirs as well.

She has to do something to get into court first. Right now it's just talk.
