Reminds me of a bumper sticker: "We never really grow up; we just learn how to act in public"
She looks like a truck-stop whore.
Bee’s job is to attack conservatives, and since the election to be mean to Trump and everyone around him. Her show is “mean humor”, not “ha-ha humor” and it appeals to the left. TBS has already factored in the fact that 1/2 the country won’t watch her. She was just doing her job and crossed a line. Her viewers don’t care, so her employer doesn’t care. A few advertisers have suspended ads (just until it blows over?) but the extra PR balances that out.
Barr was doing something outside her job which her employers can reasonably claim hurt their revenue and reputation.
There’s probably a big ideological reason that both employers are considering in their decisions (”Bee good”, “Barr bad” ideologically). But from a business standpoint, these cases are very different. Barr’s case is more like Kaepernick than like Bee in a business sense.
By being a liberal.
What with all the Brits & Canadian imports among political ‘humorists’ it looks like the Lefties are scraping the bottom of the barrel. Or do they enjoy a little extra immunity from counter-criticism as outsiders? Hey they’re only impartial, right?
Samantha Beeyatch is her real name isn’t it?
David French’s thesis that life is like high school, with all of its cliques really does help explain why CEOs and SCOTUS conservative judges often make seemingly stupid decisions to back progressive causes. They want the approval of their wives and liberal friends. Rush has often spoken about the influence that the DC cocktail party circuit has on conservatives who go to DC. People want to be liked by their neighbors and others in their vicinity. Only people who have DEEP convictions about their conservative beliefs can withstand the peer pressure.
