Samantha Bee will address vulgar comment about Ivanka Trump on-air (as advertisers bolt)

A TBS spokesman confirmed that Bee will address the subject when her show returns on Wednesday. The spokesman had no further details to share. But other sources with knowledge of the matter said Bee and her producers are working on an in-depth response that will lead Wednesday's episode.TBS and CNN are both owned by Turner, a subsidiary of Time Warner.

Bee and the producers started brainstorming about what to say on Thursday, the same day she publicly apologized. Bee had gone after Trump for failing to take action to stop the separation of undocumented families. Bee added that the president listens this his daughter and said that Ivanka should "Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it. Tell him it was an Obama thing and see how it goes, OK?"

Bee's network added in a statement of its own that the host took "the right action in apologizing for the vile and inappropriate language.""Those words should not have been aired," TBS said. "It was our mistake too, and we regret it." The clip of Bee making the remark has since been pulled from YouTube and Twitter.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Bee's language was "vile and vicious.""The collective silence by the left and its media allies is appalling," Sanders said. "Her disgusting comments and show are not fit for broadcast, and executives at Time Warner and TBS must demonstrate that such explicit profanity about female members of this administration will not be condoned on its network."

Maybe she should explain what she “really” meant. Does not sound like an apology tour. Kinda like The Griffin freak.

Samantha B should look in a mirror if she really doesn’t know what one looks like.

Question.

If Roseanne simply called Jarrett a C**t and said she should wear Sexy Clothes to get her (Commie Mulatto)Father to do something, would Roseanne have lost her TV Show?

Her show should have been cancelled. And everybody knows it.

Could be an opportunity for Sara Gilberts. The show is on TBS so it doesn't have to be funny to be successful; just be filler in between all of the Big Bang Theory reruns that don't include Sara Gilbert...

Im wondering if she IS in trouble, that this whole thing wasn’t designed to get publicity (and viewers) to a real loser and her TV “Show”

Notice the b*tch still has her job..Roseanne..unemployed for calling a douche bag an “Ape”

Not to mention - Bee did it on-air and Roseanne did it while off duty and by a different venue....and made a comment where one could decide whehter or not she had actually called the ape an ape...
