EXCLUSIVE: Samantha Bee whines about backlash from 'one bad word' after she calls Ivanka Trump a 'feckless c***' on national TV – as the president cites Roseanne 'double standard' and demands TBS fire her

Comedian Samantha Bee called Ivanka Trump a 'feckless c***' during her 'Full Frontal' show Wednesday night

Bee apologized to Ivanka and viewers on Thursday for using the obscenity

Hours later Bee's show was honored by the Television Academy as one of the most 'meaningful and relevant' – but reporters were banned

In her brief speech, Bee insisted she had good intentions and complained that America focused on 'one word'

She avoided repeating her apology in front of an audience of her fellow actors, directors and producers

Donald Trump was personally silent about the episode all day Thursday even as the White House slammed Bee's comments as 'vile and vicious'

Friday morning he demanded to know why TBS hasn't fired the late-night star

Autotrader and State Farm pulled sponsorship from her comedy show Thursday

Hours after the White House pummeled comedienne Bee for calling Ivanka Trump a 'feckless c***' on national television Wednesday night, the ''Full Frontal' host complained at an awards dinner that she shouldn't have been criticized at all.

'We spent the day wrestling with the repercussions of one bad word,' Bee groused as the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences gave her an award at the NeueHouse Hollywood for 'programming that advanced social change.' Reporters were banned from covering the event in person, but DailyMail.com obtained a transcript of her brief remarks.

She said that instead of venting their outrage at her insult of the president's daughter, 'we all should have spent the day incensed that as a nation we are wrenching children from their parents.'

Reporters were banned. I must say that was a brilliant move. The optics of this skank getting an award the day after she called the President’s daughter a c** t would have helped us a lot.

Bee is a particularly unfunny cunt in a gaggle of unfunny cunts that call themselves ‘comedians’.

- Chelsea Handler
- Amy Schumer
- Whoopi Goldberg (why was she even on Comic Relief??)
- Joy Behar
- Sara Silverman
- ... and many more

Bitter and worthless

Where is the crying girk GIF. It seems to have fallen out of use and is awfully appropriate here.

it reminds me too much of the horrible GW Bush era, where they were just allowed to say anything they want and Bush just sat there, ate pretzels and watched “Sesame Street” reruns.

And looked like a chimp.

I’d rather watch reruns of Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts than today’s half wit idiots that call themselves comedians.

She should lose her job like Roseanne Barr did.

What a double standard.

The “C” word to a woman, is the same as the “N” word is to a black person. And she has the balls to complain because it was only “one bad word”. Can you imagine if anyone called Obama a N****, but sought a pass because it was only “one bad word”? Not bloody likely!

Let's do what matters:

Come election day, drive Great Aunt Suzy and Gramma Kate to the polling station and help them vote straight Republican... If we want to destroy democrats and the Deep State the easiest way is to FIRE democrats from their jobs...Move democrats OUT of Washington and into the dust bin of history.

Folks, this is as about as bad as it can get. It isn’t “one bad word” that so many are standing up for her “right” to use, it was THE WORD. The WORD is so bad that many dictionaries don’t include it, and the ones that do include the WORD, describe it as a vulgarity (not obscenity) and while many obscenities are becoming more commonly used in conversation and print, that WORD is still considered unacceptable for use. And most decent (and even semi-decent) people cringe if and when they ever hear it - they don’t laugh and celebrate it’s use.

So to all those celebrities, noted personalities and any others that celebrated the comments of both Samantha Bee and Sally Field, think about this. Using Sally Field’s definition of that WORD, women who are “powerful, beautiful, nurturing and honest,” how would you feel about these “powerful, beautiful, nurturing and honest” women being called that WORD? Michelle Obama, Sasha Obama, Malia Obama, Chelsea Clinton, Amie Carter, Justice Ginsberg, Justice Sotomayer, Justice Kagan and many other liberal icons?

And, especially for Sally Field, how would you feel about your son Peter, referring to your granddaughters Isabel and Sophie, with that WORD? I’m sure their great kids, but I’m equally sure they are not that WORD. I can’t even imagine either of my grandmothers ever using that WORD and I’m not sure how you’ll explain to your granddaughters.

I should be careful here, since those who support the use of this word are in a minority, they’re probably a protected class. But know this, planet has approximately 7.6 billion people on it. You can be assured that 99.999% (or more) of that population, not only find the use of that WORD reprehensible, but probably never even has the WORD enter their minds.

The unjustified and irrational hate of all things Trump is being used to justify the vile words and actions of way too many people in this country. At some point, the rationally thinking people (both conservative and liberal) will have to denounce all of this or our 242 year old county will cease to exist.

What bugs me is not a one of these liberal cretins is really sorry for what they said. They really could care less and meant every ugly word they said, Roseanne included.

It wasn’t just the C word she used.

Her follow up comment (which is being conveniently ignored) about Ivanka putting on Sexy Clothing to convince her Father to change his Immigration Policies was way over the line.

No apology for that slur.
