White House calls for action against Samantha Bee ..

White House calls for action against Samantha Bee for calling Ivanka a 'c***' as Sarah Sanders says 'disgusting comments' were 'not fit for broadcast'

Sanders called on TBS to 'demonstrate that such explicit profanity about female members of this administration will not be condoned on its network'

Bee apologized: 'I crossed a line, and I deeply regret it'

Bee was criticizing Ivanka Trump for not doing more to stop the separation of children from families when immigrants cross the border illegally

She implored the first daughter to influence her father: 'Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it'

Sanders: 'Her disgusting comments and show are not fit for broadcast' White House spokesperson Sarah Sanders slammed comedian Samantha Bee as 'vile,' 'vicious,' and 'not fit for broadcast' after the comedian called first daughter Ivanka Trump a 'feckless c***' on her TBS late-night show Wednesday night.

She demanded Time Warner, which owns TBS and CNN, 'demonstrate that such explicit profanity about female members of this administration will not be condoned on its network.'

TBS, which airs Bee's show, said the comedian was right to apologize about her 'vile and inappropriate language.'

'Samantha Bee has taken the right action in apologizing for the vile and inappropriate language she used about Ivanka Trump last night. Those words should not have been aired. It was our mistake too, and we regret it,' the network said in a statement.

I gaurentee there’s a 30 second delay even if it is a live show the producers and directors let it through no problems. Think about that.

This action discredits her as an irrelevant incendiary figure.

Of course, I’m sure the same cowards here on FR who were blasting Roseanne are applauding this Samantha Bee person (Whoever she is) for her “free speech.” I’m sure they will happily accept her so-called “apology”.

Someone please remind me again why Americans are obliged to be nice and “fair” to the left.

From the link:
“Conservative blogger Erick Erickson asked that with Roseanne Barr being fired for a tweet, would Bee be fired for her actual words?

As the left ramps up the hate, they increasingly practice the adage “It’s better to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission.” They will say anything to damage POTUS, his adminsitration or his family and then say, “OOOppps!” They are proud of this because it wins them equally vile supporters who say the offenders are “just being honest” or “just couldn’t hold back in the face of abuse/constitutional crisis/dictatorship etc.

Liberals are filled with rage and pure hatred. Perhaps that is because they hate themselves first. Liberals no longer try to hide what and who they are which makes it easier to identify them now and in the future.

We are not. The Left hates us and wants us dead.

Plan accordingly.

I left out a quotation mark below so it looks like I am incorrectly attributing all the following text to the blogger mentioned. This is how it should look:

From the link:

Samantha Bee: I would like to sincerely apologize to Ivanka Trump and to my viewers for using an expletive on my show to describe her last night. It was inappropriate and inexcusable. I crossed a line, and I deeply regret it.

Another disgustingly parsed, liberal non-apology. All she apologizes for is "using an expletive." There is no apology for anything else. The "apology" should not be accepted.

“I don’t blame the Trumps for being upset, but the “White House” per se should not (directly) get down in the weeds over this name calling.”

Should they be “above all that”?

Racist comments or unbelievably tasteless comments, neither one should be acceptable. ABC was right to can Barr, TBS should fire Bee. Not that I expect that to happen. Like Barr, she issued an insincere apology. Unlike Barr, the left will say that is enough.

I think Harry Truman set the precedent for that one.

Thanks. I don’t use any of them but Febreeze and Verizon, and that’s going to change.

Let the response come from somewhere or someone else besides
‘The Official White House’. Otherwise, it gives the impression that some little Canadian nobody was able to tease the President and throw him off his game.

The image should not be of the enraged president sitting and dictating a direct answering response to Samantha Bee.
She will be dizzy with delight at the new level of attention and notoriety. Let someone like Don Jr. or Kellyanne Conway respond. The President doesn’t benefit getting into a word war with Bee, who has a very small audience.
