That comment wasn’t off the cuff, it was SCRIPTED. So why are the writers and producers etc, not taking any heat from it? The hypocrisy is simply incredible.
What's funny is that they are using the "scripted" nature for their defense, mind boggling.
Scripted and approved.

Roseanne Barr made a personal comment on her own time. It had nothing to do with her show.
Samantha Bee, with a writing staff, producers, directors, script consultants all knowing what Ms Bee would say let it be said on air.
No one that we know intervened or objected or tried to stop it from airing.
Think about that.
A GROUP of people approved of the ‘joke’ and let it be said on air.
It went on the air because it had the oversight and the blessing of many people.
This amounts to Malice Aforethought.
This wasn’t one person ‘Ambien tweeting’ on their own time.
This was a written, approved, performed; a deliberate act of hate by a GROUP of people.
Don't forget that it's not a live show, so it was taped, and later edited. There were plenty of opportunities to edit out, or even "bleep" the word. They were proud of being "potty mouths," which isn't surprising, since most of what they deem "humor" is the intellectual level of "Trump is a doo-doo head!"

Other words males at TBS okayed calling a woman a C word. And that is OK? If I called any one, male or female, a C word at my place of unemployment, I would probably be fired.
