If ABC doesn't do something about Roseanne Barr, ABC IS Roseanne Barr.
Spread it around.
There haven't been any consequences for this shit. She should lose her show. That show should be yanked off the air. Let it be a lesson to one and all. You DON'T do that shit. If you do, you pay for it.

I Am Fucking FED UP! How 'bout you?

(9,527 posts)One about Valerie Jarret being part ape. Barr has tried to walk this back as a joke.
And she posted something long since disproven that George Soros was a nazi collaborator.

Roseannes recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show. I am disappointed in her actions to say the least.

(24,296 posts)She should quit the show.

ESPN

(2,312 posts)"Tonight on Fox News, after 'Hannity,' 'Roseanne' comes to the Fair and Balanced channel."
Of course, some casting changes have to be made:
Dan James Woods
DJ Kanye West
Jackie Kirstie Alley
Darlene Tila Tequila
Becky "Real Housewives" star Teresa Giudice
David Scott Baio
Theme song: "Wango Tango" by Ted Nugent
You get the idea.

(2,596 posts)They were happy to ride this racist tiger all the way to Nielsen gold until she went a bridge too far. And the only reason that the decision was made to cut her loose by the black, female President of ABC was because Chairman Bob Iger (Disney that owns ABC), who is Jewish, endorsed it. Both of these individuals representing minority communities have heard the offensive remarks made by Barr in the past/present, as well as the despicable crap spewing out of Shitler's mouth on a daily basis about anyone without white skin. I'd like to believe that we'll see more and more decisions of this nature made, but I'm not yet optimistic about that.
