Media bias and Hollywood’s double standard: Roseanne Barr vs. Peter Fonda Peter Fonda recently said:“We should rip Barron Trump from his mother’s arms and put him in a cage with pedophiles.â€Fonda’s statement is worse than Roseanne Barr’s earlier statement, because:1) Fonda involves an innocent child who never chose to put himself in the public eye.and2) Fonda tries to incite violence against an innocent person.When I first found out about this, I said to myself, “Let’s see if the media pays less, as much as, or more attention to Fonda’s quote than to Roseanne’s quote.â€But then I soon realized that it had...

Rosanne Barr retweeted a statement that alleged former Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett had evil intent towards Jews and Israelis. The retweet came several minutes after Barr tweeted on Tuesday that “I’m making restitution for the pain I have caused.” The retweet, from a user calling himself “Ghost of Bull Moose,” read: “You didn’t cause any pain. Those people always hated you. Valerie Jarrett wants Israelis and Jews chased into the sea, and she’ll celebrate.” .....

Cathy Mortiz emailed her resignation to the rest of the board on Thursday saying "I am sorry for the message that was conveyed" In the message, Moritz said she plans to serve out her elected tenure and use her situation as a "learning opportunity" for herself and the community.

There has been an outpouring of conservative condemnation of Roseanne for her racist comment about Valerie Jarrett. But the left-wing media is largely rallying around Samantha Bee for calling Ivanka Trump the c-word. Take the Daily Beast, where Amy Zimmerman dismissed Bee’s attack as merely “cussing” and “naughty words,” claiming that to compare it with Roseanne’s tweet is “the false equivalency to end all false equivalencies.” Along similar lines, on today’s Morning Joe MSNBC analyst John Heilemann argued that the punishment for Bee shouldn’t be as harsh as the show cancellation that Roseanne promptly suffered. Heilemann: “In the scale of...

Megyn Kelly is calling out Samantha Bee after the late-night host referred to Ivanka Trump as a “feckless c–t” on her Wednesday night show. Tweeting a link to a Raw Story writeup of the Full Frontal moment, Kelly, 47, called Bee’s language “disgusting” and suggested the media’s “gleeful” coverage of the monologue was hypocritical in light of its condemnation of disgraced comedian Roseanne Barr. “This is disgusting. How is this acceptable?” the host of NBC’s Megyn Kelly TODAY tweeted Thursday morning, referring to Bee’s comments. “And how are we expected to take any of these publications seriously if they gleefully...

Roseanne Barr lost her new television show. Barr, in a tweet about Barack Obama aide Valerie Jarrett, said of Jarrett: "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj." The comedian deleted the offensive tweet, but the damage was irreversible. The reaction was swift. The Rev. Al Sharpton tweeted: "The comparison ... of ... Valerie Jarrett to an APE is racist and inexcusable. ABC must take action NOW!" The Disney-owned ABC issued the following statement: "Roseanne's Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show." Barr left Disney little choice....

Folks, let’s be honest about a couple of things. One, how is the cancellation of a television show a presidential-level subject of conversation? Second, but now that it is; does watching Roseanne make me a bigot? The 2018 reboot of the show that garnered critical acclaim for its portrayal of a struggling working class family in the Rust Belt of America got off to solid ratings. It had been renewed for a second season—and liberal America was again perplexed. How could this happen? How could a sitcom about people we consider inferior in everyday do well? Who cares about...

Roseanne Barr wanted her hit show to get canceled with her racist Twitter meltdown, ex-husband Tom Arnold claimed in a new interview. “It had to happen,” Arnold told The Hollywood Reporter about ABC abruptly pulling the plug Tuesday on the “Roseanne” reboot. “And I am going to tell you the truth, she wanted it to happen, if you saw how her tweets escalated this weekend,” he continued. “If it hadn’t happened [Tuesday], this season would have been so awful for everyone every day because she would have felt like she was [being] taken advantage [of], just like when I left...

[snip] Arnold - who was a writer on the original Rosanne series - claimed that Barr's politics and social media showed that she was obsessed with the conspiracy theories that Donald Trump has been feeding to the masses. Arnold wrote for the show in 1988 and married Barr in 1990 but would divorce in 1994. 'This monkey thing is something that she tweeted before about black people, it's a meme that she and thousands of her alt-right fans do. They love to call black people monkeys, it's not a one time joke,' Arnold explained.

To sit and watch all the different new world order species/races jockeying for a position to keep their heads above water and keep ahead of the last lie. Hillary Clinton didn’t win, and if you can’t believe it, it “WAS” Divine Intervention! Now the past president may be the first without a library and having to look for a job. Should have saved some money, but everyone though Hillary was in and they could continue to sin. Do you find this strange? The ABC executive that cancelled Roseanne is the same person who cancelled Last Man Standing and is married...

Now that so many Democrats are convinced that Roseanne Barr is a racist, will they try to convince her to run for Robert Byrd’s old Senate seat? In 2005, the Washington Post reported the following:… a politically ambitious butcher from West Virginia named Bob Byrd recruited 150 of his friends and associates to form a chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. After Byrd had collected the $10 joining fee and $3 charge for a robe and hood from every applicant, the “Grand Dragon” for the mid-Atlantic states came down to tiny Crab Orchard, W.Va., to officially organize the chapter.Also known as...

Scott Adams releases several talks throughout each day. I try to watch most of them. Today he posits that the company that manufactures Ambien has made a massive mistake by issuing a statement that "Ambien does not cause racism". He contends that Ambien does cause people to do things they otherwise would not do. And that the drug. is classified as a "hypnotic". His take is that Roseanne may well have taken the drug and tweeted under its influence. He also feels that the drug company may well open themselves up to problems by saying that their drug does not...

Donald J. Trump â€Verified account @realDonaldTrump 5m5 minutes ago Bob Iger of ABC called Valerie Jarrett to let her know that “ABC does not tolerate comments like those” made by Roseanne Barr. Gee, he never called President Donald J. Trump to apologize for the HORRIBLE statements made and said about me on ABC. Maybe I just didnÂ’t get the call?

President Trump has freed so many children held in bondage to pimps all over this world. Hundreds each month. He has broken up trafficking rings in high places everywhere,' Barr tweeted on Friday. Also known as 'The Storm', the QAnon theory is based on a series of anonymous and highly cryptic posts on the message board 4Chan, which purport to be written by a high-level insider at the Trump White House. Q is a reference to 'Q-clearance', the Department of Energy security classification that offers the broadest level of access to Top Secret and Secret Restricted Data granted by the...

The new Roseanne Conner was unrecognizable, a once proudly feminist freethinker that was conned into voting against her family’s best interests (not that the show wanted to get into that), and a survivor of parental abuse that went from vowing to never strike her kids to championing spanking a teenager. It felt like the Roseanne revival was written by people working from glancing at Wiki summaries of old episodes; the characters were all there, but their personalities had been edited by randos. Now, in the kind of scientific sitcom experiment that we practically never see conducted, we get to witness...

Roseanne isn’t back, but The Conners are. The highly anticipated follow-up show premiered Tuesday night to lower-than-expected ratings but critical approval. Besides tuning in to find out how the show did away with Roseanne, what did viewers actually think about the show? The consensus? Not great. “This show should have stayed ‘cancelled,'” one viewer said succinctly. Another commenter was equally as blunt, stating; “Probably the worst show I’ve ever seen.”

ABC’s Roseanne-without-Roseanne spin-off The Conners couldn’t come anywhere close to the blockbuster premiere rating of its predecessor, yet still had a strong number that led Tuesday night in the ratings. The debut airing delivered 10.5 million viewers and a 2.3 rating among adults 18-49. That’s down 55 percent from the premiere of Roseanne last spring, but was very much on par with Roseanne‘s finale and even managed to edge out NBC’s This Is Us for the night. When Roseanne returned on ABC earlier this year, the first episode delivered a staggering 18.2 million viewers and a 5.1 rating among adults...

Executives at ABC now believe that their decision to fire Roseanne Barr from their revival of Roseanne was a mistake and the network’s spin-off series The Conners may flop, according to a report from Mail Online. Two senior executives at the network told the outlet that ABC President Channing Dungey’s decision to immediately fire the actress and cancel her show after she made racially charged comments about former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett was a “knee-jerk” decision that they would later regret. “We didn’t think it through properly. What Roseanne did was wrong but we shouldn’t have rushed to fire her....
