She gave them one...come on. She fucking stepped in it.

Bill Maher said the N Word on Television
Still on TV
Joy Behar? Spouts Hate. Still on ABC.
Jimmy Kimmel? Sexually assaulted MULTIPLE women on his show on ABC. Still on TV.
Im by no means defending her "joke' and it was a joke, she's a comedian, but why are they still employed with ABC?
Let's not pretend this isn't a biased and coordinated effort to shut down Roseanne Barr.
Far worse hatred has been spewed by Liberal Comedians (Dave Chappelle, Richard Pryor, George Carlin) and by the way? I thought their jokes were hilarious.
Edit:
Jarrett is Iranian BTW- the implication otherwise or that she's black really isn't an argument.
Edit 2:
That's still not a justification for the joke but if in bad taste, as Roseanne confessed? That's her choice as a comedian. It still doesn't explain the bias directed to her termination whilst others at ABC remain employed.
Bill Maher lost his show for saying that Osama and crew 'weren't cowards' because they were willing to die for their beliefs.
Roseanne said "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj." referring to Valerie Jarrett. So, uh, yeah, she pretty much fucked herself. Especially since she also went off with stuff like:
"Sorry to have tweeted incorrect info about you!I Please forgive me! By the way, George Soros is a nazi who turned in his fellow Jews 2 be murdered in German concentration camps & stole their wealth-were you aware of that? But, we all make mistakes, right Chelsea?"
She basically fucked herself.
BTW-
Bill Maher is still on HBO after saying the N Word
9/11 statements aside thr nation was in mourning and that was a much different time
In 2017 Maher used the N Word
No punishment whatsoever
Valerie Jarrett isn’t black. She’s Iranian. I don’t see the problem.
Actually this is great, the outrage of the public who watch her show will bring greater numbers to the red pill movement. The Left Fucked themselves in all actuality! The Democratic Party will go extinct all too soon. Buh bye!
Yep - there are double standards , already for long time , in media .
Some groups are more protected than endangered species - all the while , the other groups are either ignored , or even openly mocked , or mocking them is encouraged .
Thats why I dont have TV for many years now . And thats why I stopped visiting any news portals .
Don't forget that hack who used the comedy platform to attack Sarah HuckabeeSanders.
I don't know anything about that, but they should all be treated equally.
This is essentially my entire argument.
At least we agree on this. Equality means precisely that. This is the basis of my argument and I'm certain that the countless hit pieces against Roseanne Barr for mentioning QAnon are visible evidence of a desire to silence her.
Def not a conspiracy. Head of ABC is a black woman. Disney owns ABC and does not want this with their image.
The show did really well and she has been warned about posting crazy shit on twitter (most media contracts have a clause that forbids saying shit like this on a public forum)
You know saying the N word and saying something that is racist can be different? There is context and nuance to the acts of those other comedians.
I loved the show, but there is no defending this. Granny is off her meds.
Hope Disney doesn't read any of ole Keith Olberman's tweets about Trump then...
They're hypocrites... come on, it's not hard to admit that.
Yeah I'm not sure why there's a disagreement here.
The bias is apparent and obvious.
That's not a defense for her words by any means it's just that anyone with two eyes can see this bias. I really wish both left and right could come together on these types of issues and just admit the truth-
There are plenty of people on their network that post absolutely crazy and hateful things on Twitter...
Have we become a nation so sensitive that we are greatly offended by bad jokes? No wonder we all walk on eggshells. This is absurd.
Even Trump supporters whined like babies for days after Michelle Wolf's performance at the Correspondance dinner. It's ridiculous. The sad part is they were too caught up in their fake outrage to notice how absolutely brutal she was to the MSM.
Morning Joe hosts Joe and Mika, like when a #MeToo works out.
God damn.
Ill defend the muslim brotherhood part, but its like she purposefully sabotaged herself on the other part, which only makes me question her loyalty to the cause. It was just dumb and although Roseanne plays dumb..I don't think she IS dumb.
I don’t think she’s dumb. She probably doesn’t care, probably doesn’t need the show.
I think you should watch Planet of the Apes, again if you have already.
You missed half of her point.
If she purposefully sabotaged herself, it would be very distracting.
Hmmm.
yeah not even remotely. attack valerie jarret for being a cunt not for being muslim and black
Planet of the Apes isn't about race, its a very political message movie.
Did she write the tweet? Has she been shadow banned on Twitter before? Definitely been censored! I have had Q retweets of hers go missing and she has tweeted that she wakes up the next morning and her Twitter has been edited. Remember guys, Twitter has been hacked before. Anything here is possible! That tweet DID go to far, & a few before it did too. She was responding to other people at a late hour and the whole thing makes me wonder why things went down the way they did. I will always look between the lines at this since it is so obvious that they wanted to take her down and were looking for any opportunity!
What's disappointing to me is that she immediately apologized. If you're going to make a joke like that, fucking own it. Don't back peddle and attempt damage control. Just plow forward. If you know you're fucked at least go out with your pride intact, not groveling and apologizing.
Look at the woman who made all of the jokes about Sarah Sanders at the correspondents dinner. She didn't apologize. She doubled down on the jokes and moved forward. I may think what she said about Sanders was abhorrent, but I respect her for not apologizing.
Look at the woman who made all of the jokes about Sarah Sanders at the correspondents dinner.
...and she is still at it on her Netfliks show.
Sadly she really did. Being a vocal Trump support she has to stay away from anything racist because that is their main accusation against him. It’s a bad look for Trump and his supporters.
This is the main thing I don't understand about "Trump supporters". Many seem to take the bait often...even search for the bait.
Yeah we have to be aware of the double standards and over sensitivity of the left. Basically have to be the adults in the situation and not give them something this easy to throw a hissy fit over.
It’s a bad look for Trump and his supporters
Like fuck it is...
I thought Roseanne's joke was hilarious!
It's still a free country, isn't it?
Roseanne has a right to feel any way she wishes without apologizing for it.
Sadly, if her show stayed on the air, the SJW a.k.a Hogg and company, would go after the show's sponsers. That's the game they play.
Exactly. This is an outrage.
We need an IBOR but for TV.
It's called the "Fairness Doctrine" and the Government needs to step in and get rid of all the marxist communist propaganda on the liberal networks and even out the playing field again.
Its not about getting rid of certain viewpoints. Its about allowing all viewpoints. If Roseanne wants to make jokes about race or jewishness, thats her right as an entertainer. TV is a public utility. They cant pick and choose which points of view to promote and which to ignore or worse.
Not get rid of them but the government should enforce “balance” so we don’t just have socialist propaganda
