Conan used to do this on his late night show all the freaking time. Gun shouldn't of been fired either. Those tweets were old as fuck. Disney does background checks. They knew about them. ABC(owned by Disney) also knew about Roseanne. She is jewish and did a Nazi photo shoot a couple years before the show. She has never been safe comedy. I hope the Connors fails. Sara Gilbert is not the same league as Roseanne. It was and still is the older people on the show that carried it. DJ should of been recast... So bad. They chosen to bring back the wrong Becky.

Caution999 10/14/18 11:16:46 AM #86:	Roseanne didnt do anything that an apology couldnt have cured. Where are all the so called Christians on this site? Did you forget what your entire religion is about? The concept of forgiveness. If this happened in the 90s, she wouldve been suspended or forced to allocate funds to a worthy cause. Hell, maybe even an episode that touched on this issue so people could learn from it. Make it a learning experience. Invite Wanda Sykes on the show as a character and make Roseanne say an offensive joke and play it out. Have Roseanne come to the realization she was wrong. Say her apologies. No. The only thing you learn from this is to just keep your mouth shut and never try to be funny. Shes a comedian. Its natural instinct for her to try and make fun of EVERYONE. The joke wasnt from a place of racism, imo. Just poorly thought out. It, in no way, shape, or form proves shes a racist. ABC knew what they were getting when they hired her. Be creative. Dont just cut her off. We all need to get along. We all need to take steps to learn how to not be offensive. We gotta look in the mirror. Cutting off someone for a poorly thought out joke is utterly insane. Roseanne has stood up for minorities in her career. She isnt a bad person. You cant take away her previous history with one tweet. Utterly ridiculous. As it stands right now, killing off her character and removing her from the showits like she might as well have murdered someone or something. --- The best posts, believe me. <cite>Caution999 posted [p:910507510] in ABC Execut...

Rebel_Patriot 10/14/18 11:20:41 AM #90:	Bishop9800 posted... Notes: Mediaite is a liberal news and opinion blog covering politics and entertainment in the media industry. It is the flagship blog of Abrams Media, a ring of blogs run by ABC legal analyst Dan Abrams. Mediaite presents news with a left wing bias in reporting choices. Although they publish mostly stories that favor the left, they do source their content well. Goddamn it I liked Dan Abrams. Hes a fucking liberal?! That sucks --- Horses?!

The Great Muta 22 10/14/18 11:22:30 AM #92:	You can, however, judge her history based on her own comments. Roseanne routinely spouted off ridiculous shit before she got canned, including calling David Hogg a Nazi and spouting QAnon snd Pizzagate bullshit. Earlier that day she called Chelsea Clinton a rape child and went off attacking Muslims. She wasn't worth the networks trouble and frankly, there's no way she wasn't warned prior. Fuck her, I'm glad she'll fade back into obscurity where she can be left and forgotten. --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLH8skGXKw4 WHOOP WHOOP <cite>The Great Muta 22 posted [p:910507739] in ABC Execut...
