Rosanne Barr show cancelled
BTTT!!!!!!!!! Agree totally
“Misleading? You mean Barr wasn’t fired over the tweet? “
It was a Barr tweet about VJ, not a VJ tweet.
And to all the other nicey-nicey girls here who are so upset that Roseanne made an mean joke and are glad somebody ratted her out to Teacher - stick it where the sun dont shine!
Preach it!!
Its refreshing to see a post from someone with a spine. Im beyond sick of cowards who are supposedly on our side condemning anyone who dares to insult their leftist masters.
Feel free to boycott ABC and Disney.
Sorry you are so sensitive. I really dont think the comment was that bad. Not at all like holding a severed head when so many Americans had heads sawn off.
Tell me again why people think a comment about planet of the apes is racist? Just who automatically relates Apes with blacks? I would think that people like that are the racists
Well I stand corrected then. I HOPE she comes back. It’s the only show I watch on TV other than OANN and FOX.
Yeah well, he passed away years ago. So, there’s that...
All depends on one's point of view I guess.

It happens here all the time. Meanwhile, over on Twitter, dozens of successful and funny people are rushing to her defense. But over here? “Oh, she’s in such bad taste!” I can’t stand it.
I’m not discussing what’s ideally right or wrong here - but our reality as it exists, and what’s smart or stupid within that context. I wouldn’t have posted or tweeted something like that if I wanted to keep my show. Barr has been around long enough to understand how things are stacked, and she could have foreseen this.
What happens to the show, and its influence, now? She was winning; and this could have been avoided.
Maybe some of the Freepers are right, and she wanted to lose it after all.
Its funny that by setting up a system where you can only call white people monkeys or apes, lefties are implying that the comparison to white people is too far off to be genuinely insulting. What does that tell you about leftist opinions of black people?
Jumping to the conclusion that comparing Jarrett to being an offspring of a humanic ape is racist says more about the racism of the observer!
Roseanne probably didn’t even know that she had a black father. Most of us think of her as an Iranian muslim spy who looks like somebody threw acid in her face. I didn’t know she had a black father; news to me.
ABC probably had plans to drop it all along. They just used this as an excuse. No way were they going to allow a show headed by a pro-Trumper. For ABC (and other networks) left-wing political agenda come first.
Thanks for the correction.
I'm sorta thinking that had the show been left on the air, we would quickly discover that the tweet did absolutely nothing to damage the business.
I don't think Roseanne's demographics would give a crap.
Honestly, you cannot actually SEE any African features. She looks less black than Megan Markle. Duchess Megan Markle, I mean.
Whew! I thought I had made a 20 year mistake! Another one! Lol.
Honestly. This country is nuts.
