It was Alvin Garrett, not Art Monk that Cosell made the comment about.

Obnoxious, yes. But how come you can do ANYTHING to a President on the right, but can’t say anything about a Hidden Secret President on the Left?

Exactly.
If it’s popular enough someone else will pick it up.

The Iranian Lizard Commie Muzzie B*tch is a complete POS. Her and the Kenyan are just two American hating turds in the bowl.

She ought to start another show without the current crew. She should be a widow raising a couple of grandkids. If any of the crew is loyal she can bring them on from time to time. Roseann is a natural comedian.

She shouldn’t have tweeted the insult but that’s part of being a comic, pushing the envelop. Not a reason to cancel a show in the USA, but we are becoming more like the old Soviet Union. I’m glad I’m old

If you put a firing assault rifle in the hand of that ape, he wouldn’t be as scary as the photo of Valerie Jarrett.

Yet, Conservatives, Christians, and Republicans are disparaged constantly, being called every nasty thing that the Left can come up with, it never matters. Social Justice - some have more rights than others!

Freedom of speech doesn’t necessarily protect you from firing if you’ve said or done something that your employer dislikes or finds damaging to business.

A&E wasn’t owned by a large company like Disney that could absorb the loss. Politics is more important to Disney. Roseanne is dead. Sad to say.

What about Chelsea Handler, Kathy Griffin and the other subhuman leftists? Why are they allowed to tweet whatever the hell they want, with no consequences whatsoever?

And precictably, so-called “conservatives” just smile, bend over and say “ Thank you sir, may I have another?”

That's like saying Kathy Griffin shouldn't have taken that picture of cutting off Trump's head, but that's part of being a comic. In fact, I believe that's exactly what Griffin said. I didn't buy it then, and I don't buy it now. Say something stupid, do something stupid, and expect to pay a price for it. Griffin had nobody to blame but herself for what happened after her stunt, Barr has nobody to blame but herself for what happened today.

Everyone, TBP May have the post of the thread winner here:

If Roseanne Barr had said the exact same thing about Ben Carson that she said about Valerie Jarrett, not only would her show still be on the air, ti would have been renewed for another two seasons already — and every “woke” “progressive” would be fervently defending her. No question about it.

So you just sit there quietly and obediently abide by the rules of the left.

Grow a spine.

I beg your pardon. Disney owns ABC. Disney owns A&E.

Eh. Wish she never apologized but she really had no where left to go. They were going to find a reason to cancel the show or she was going to have to "evolve" and start cucking. That's the left's favorite story line.
