As Twitchy told you, ABC Entertainment has axed the “Roseanne” reboot over Roseanne Barr’s “abhorrent, repugnant” tweet...if ABC is going to cite “abhorrent, repugnant” tweets as the basis for canceling a show or terminating talent’s employment, why did Keith Olbermann just get an expanded role at ESPN? Both ESPN and ABC fall under Disney’s umbrella, but Olbermann gets a plum job and Roseanne loses hers?

The lesson:
NEVER apologize.
It simply invites much further attack.
Do like Trump and immediately double-down.
Because it wasn’t about WHAT she said - it was about WHO she said it about.
Bob Iger - potential DNC President candidate for 2020 axed her and hired Olbermann and now wants to buy almost all of Fox. I think he should be denied.
Disney is EVIL. Pro Hillary, Pro Abama. If Trumpsters boycott they are out of business because the Pro Hillary Abama crowd are not having children.
If he’s denied Comcast will get it. SSDD.
Exactly..and that was Roseanne’s fatal mistake, she said she was sorry..NEVER EVER say you are sorry..you tweet it, own it and say it was a joke..when Jimmy Kimmel trashed Melania’s accent in a 5 minute skit, he did NOT apologize, he doubled down on it..when Michelle Wolf trashed Sarah Sanders TO HER FACE did she say she was sorry, NO, she doubled down on it. When Stephen Colbert dressed up as Hitler and called Conservatives all Nazi’s, did he apologize, NO, he doubled down on it..same goes for Bill Maher, he never apologizes for ANYTHING he says..bottom line, the second Roseanne said she was sorry, the left smelled blood in the water and she was done
Brian Ross is returning to ABC News, but with a different job
You should bring up Jimmy Kimmel...same problem. He would have to be fired as well, if you use the Roseanne-rule.
An apology is a guilty plea after a guilty plea comes the sentencing
.... “Liberal Privilege” is real. We chuckle and joke about about it here ... But the sobering reality is that, Unlike the so called “White Privilege” the race baiters scream about .... there really is special and seriously unequal treatment given to those of the Liberal Persuasion!
It wasn't even that, imo. Rosanne Barr has been sounding the clarion call via her tweets about sex trafficking and pedophilia. THAT'S the reason she had to be taken down.
Personally, I thought her tweet about Valerie Jarrett was funny as hell.
The evil, dirty mouth chic of the Correspondent’s Dinner now has her own show and is tearing Sarah Huckabee to bits....
...but that must be OK
In the words of Col. Nathan Brittles...Played by John Wayne.
“Never apologize son, it’s a sign of weakness.”
Keith has also retired from political commentary. I don’t agree with the Roseanne cancellation but to be fair, if he did the Resistance tweets while under the employ of ESPN I have no doubt it would end up the same as 2015 etc.
The Little Woman watched a portion of one show, just out of curiosity. She said it was absolutely horrible.
Maybe this fact made it easy for Disney to make a virtue signaling statement. A twofer if you will.
Exactly..whenever when Bill Maher said that Donald Trump are descendants of orangutan..never apologized, never lost his job
We must have a serious boycott of ALL things ABC, Disney, ESPN and all affiliates and advertisers. Enough is enough with the double standards
What did anyone expect from that communists club called Disney.
Perhaps she got a little full of herself. The tweet was a bit coarse, but not really that bad. They wanted to cancel Roseanne. The show failed to toe the line of leftist propaganda and could not be allowed to continue. Those other bozos, Olberman, etc., are only saying things the left agrees with, so they are immune. Remember who owns the network.
