I guess if she just took a knee it would have been ok....


Well that got me thinking. If there's merit that the NFL kneeling thing was blown out of proportion by Trump for past resentments, maybe this is payback for that. ABC and the NLF have been partners for decades.

I want to start a company, and my whole job will be that I get hired by celebreties, and I control their twitter, facebook passwords.

Then they have to submit all social media posts to me, I will read them, and post only the sapproved ones.

Sounds crummy, but it would save celebreties millions of dollars.

She was blackmailed and threatened.

👁

Are you talking about the same mouthy woman that's been pissing people off since the 80's?
I find it hard to fathom anyone could blackmail & threaten her, it's about as likely as Kathy Griffin being a hot pin-up girl.

Regardless of what the usual defenders say, she did this to herself.

Good riddance.

It sounds like many were planning on quitting before the cancelation news.

What a dummy.

I think it is safe to say that she is a hell of a lot hotter than Valerie Jarrett is, maybe it was flattery...just saying

There is the real reason for this.

We can't have shows bringing real world situations to the airwaves unless they have a leftist narrative.

Ats 101: When all else fails.. blame the left.

Lol. Or blame the mega idiot who sunk what could have been a good show.

I was working on a screenplay for tv and now that Rosie is free, I might pitch it to her.


It's about a wacky group of Muslims just living day by day, calling it, "Halal In The Family".



(What? Too soon?)

I'm not politically correct so I just see the humor. That is if there is any to see. In this case, I think it was funny. Its not like she held up a bloody severed head... But hey, I'm just some guy that thinks obama is proud of the muslim brotherhood and michelle looks like a monkey when she gets mad so what do I know. You know that picture of the monkey with its hand stuck in a jar because it won't let go of the banana? Add a string of pearls and you have michelle. Its not because she is black. Its because she looks like a monkey. If I crack a joke about chelsea horse-face clinton it has nothing to do with race. Its because she has a horse-face. But if she was black it would be all about racism.

Just read the casts reactions.
Not good.
Sara Gilbert is pretty upset. No doubt because this was probably the one and only show her acting career has brought her too.
Others are bent outta shape but none as much as her

ABC is a powerful well funded political vent.

They planned for the show to flop for political reasons, and it didn't.

Another fail 😁

So now they come up with what we are seeing today and 80% of the people are gobbling it up like Thanksgiving Turkey.

It's so obvious. Love it. 😊

If Roseanne had left out the "Planet of the Apes" part she'd still have her show.

At that point, she might as well have said the n word.

Now I wonder if anybody in the conservative media or in a high profile position is stupid enough to try to defend her or be upset at ABC for their decision.

This is BS, people are getting way too soft. Yes, what she said was racist but an apology would have been enough. Having to publicly say you're sorry should cover poor choice of words.

I mean, Jesus Christ, we have journalists, left and right, who have quite possibly physically and sexually assaulted women, for years -- and it's hard to get rid of them. And here the guillotine falls before she can even reflect on what she did.

This is the first and most likely the last time anyone will ever see me defending Roseanne Barr, never been a fan, but our country is getting ridiculous.

That job already exists. Sounds like you want to start a PR firm.
