'Roseanne' Canceled at ABC Following Racist Tweet

Hollywood Reporter ^ | May 29, 2018

Would ABC do the same if someone made a comment about TRUMP or a member of his cabinet like Ben Carson?

[Midwesterner53]

Goodbye $$$ for ABC.

[kjam22]

Roseanne was wrong though. Clearly Jarrett is what you get when you cross a muslim terrorist with a whitehouse advisor.

[a fool in paradise]

It was very inappropriate, I don’t recall any lizard people in Planet of the Apes.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Silly Rabbit that only applies to Commie Comedians..they can say whatever disgusting thing they want about US and its fine and dandy

[EdnaMode]

Michael Shannon said Trump supporters deserved the urn. David Harbour encouraged violence against Trump supporters at the SAG awards. Both are expected to contend for Emmys this year.

[miserare]

It was right on point. Jarrett and the heroine in POTA bear a striking resemblance.

[IronJack]

Yep. I applaud her sentiment, but she pushed her luck way too far this time. Nobody conservative can get away with THAT these days. That kind of opprobrium is reserved for liberals.

[packrat35]

Valerie Jarrett is NOT a black woman, she is Iranian.

[Newtoidaho]

Yeah, I remember all the same kind of backlash when all those liberal a-wipes were comparing W to a chimp every day.

Wait, no I don’t because nothing ever happened to any of them.

[PSUGOP]

I don’t get the apes vs human insult....maybe 125 years ago. The planet of the apes was all about taking over the earth. Yes by ape like creatures. The Muslim Brotherhood has the same idea, take over the world.

Jeez are people sensitive when it suits them. Folks look at a page in a book and see mostly white, must be racist. Obviously I am wrong, but I really don’t know why. Maybe I should go to starbucks.

[FrankR]

So...I guess we’re going to see this, or others like it, posts for the rest of the day, week, month?

Rosanne has no self-control over what she says, or does. Remember the crotch-rubbings National Anthem?

The libs got what they wanted, Rosanne cancelled.

But, is anyone on the right calling for a boycott of ABC’s sponsors? I guess little dweeb David Hogg has more on the ball in that way of fighting back.

ABC is probably NOT going to reverse its decision, so, I’m not going to put much thought on it.

To me, Jarrett looks more like a reptile, than an ape, anyway. but the left has their “trigger”, which is what they were waiting for in ambush.

[Celerity]

Anything would have cancelled the show.

You’re absolutely right. Perhaps Hollywood will stand up to the tyranny. They all know it, and they know it’s gone too far.

If they don’t, then Elie Wiesel will finally click to them.

[SkyDancer]

But shows that slam Trump, conservatives and Republicans are okay with them ... if it weren’t for double standards .....

[pallmallman]

I like Roseanne...and even more so now.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Valarie Jarrett is not black. She’s even more special. She is Iranian.

[EdnaMode]

Network TV is mostly terrible. Cable and streaming are superior.

[Vendome]

Valarie Jarret’s Father, a graduate of Howard University and Doctor of Hematology. An internationally recognized expert on pathology, inherited blood diseases and population genetics, Bowman was the first tenured African American professor in the University’s Biological Sciences Division. He also was a powerful advocate for minority scholars seeking access to academic medical careers.

So yeah, she is black

[imardmd1]

Tell the media not to come into the kitchen (where the money is coined) if they can't stand the heat. I guess making money through broadcasting to an audience hungering for truth and ressupersized onating with it, especially when comedically presented, however uncomfortable, isn't coincident with ABC's interests.

Roseann need not apologize to Valerie. The comparison was obviously justly deserved.

Picture a cartoon with Valerie the Persian as an organ-grinder with a monkey and its begging cup. Everybody dance, now!
