Rosanne Barr show cancelled

[tomkat]

muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj

FOFL !

[robroys woman]

Pretty funny. I didn’t expect it this fast.

Since they cancelled it, she can peddle it elsewhere. It’s an obvious hit.

[NohSpinZone]

She’s Iranian, or something, right?

[Berlin_Freeper]

Did someone smother his brother?

[weston]

She never should have apologized.

[kjam22]

Good news is I can take ABC back out of my channel list....

[jean michael]

Fox isn’t any better than ABC

[heights]

As long as they have to Pay Out her contract.

[DoodleDawg]

It was the ValJar ancestry comment...for which she has since apologized.

I'm sure her apology was just as sincere as Kathy Griffin's was.

[God luvs America]

as is jimmy kimmel...

[HamiltonJay]

Unless ABC holds the rights, I’d expect this picked up by someone else quickly.

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

It got the “Drudge Siren”. HA!!!

[Pravious]

So if you’re not politically correct in America, your career is over.

Unless you’re making fun of people on the right, that is - in which case you can do or say anything.

We REALLY have to start fighting back in this culture war . . . somehow . . . and not accepting their rules of what is and what is not “acceptable” to a bunch of hypocritical leftist fascists is a good start.

[robroys woman]

Jarrett isn’t even black.

That’s the comedy here. It wasn’t a racial slur. Islam is not a race, and the characters in Planet of the Apes are not human. It’s the racists that tried to make this a race issue. Apparently there are a couple of bucks left to spend on the race card.

[arkfreepdom]

She sure gave them ammo. Good grief. Why would she tweet something like that?

[DiogenesLamp]

I would think most people would know better than to walk into this sort of landmine.

Of course, Roseanne Barr has shown a tendency for very poor taste/judgement in the past.

[DoodleDawg]

As long as they have to Pay Out her contract.

Hers? Not likely. ABC is probably on the hook for the other members of the cast though.

[Stormdog]

Too bad. That was the only reason I ever turned on ABC.

[tet68]

Boy, you think Valjar doesn’t still have power?

Don’t think Rosanne is gonna like this.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...by another
woman.

[pepsionice]

I could actually see Fox taking the series. You are correct....against Monday Night NFL action, it’d tear them up.
