"Did you know that Valerie Jarrett was a touch black before this whole ordeal? I sure as hell had no idea...i highly doubt the vast majority of people know this either...or Roseanne for that matter.

Pretty sure she wouldn't have said this knowingly about a black person. That is obvious career suicide.

No one knew. Everyone thought she was Arab/Persian."

 

 

If only there were some baseline to judge whether to giver her the benefit of the doubt or not.

He’s complicit in re-elevating her, IMO. Listening to the Stern interview of them both, it appeared to me that he knew her difficulties with conspiracy theories and they had an agreement not to discuss them.

I'd also like to thank Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity Wars for helping in Disney's promptness with the decision to cancel the show.

Trump is kryptonite. He's the human version of Russian murder poison. The paradigm has been cemented, he devalues everything he touches. He's the non consensual midas touch of another's private parts.

Every trump supporter should heed the warning. An alliance with him will debase you, completely.

You just described precisely what Donald Trump is: a conman.  He tempts with promises of riches or fame that are too good to be true.  Suckers fall for it.  They lose everything, while he makes a killing and moves onto his next mark.

Never said it was the end of the world, I said it was a kick in the nuts. It doesn't matter how long they have to wait until their next job, a shit load of people who live paycheck to paycheck are unemployed right now because Rosanne is a piece of shit who has poor impulse control. They had nothing to do with that and it sucks. 

 

I don't disagree, I was only pointing out it's no different then any other show that gets canceled for whatever reason which they didn't have anything to do with those decisions either.

This wasn’t someone that just happened to get a paycheck from the same employer. He had a critical role in relaunching the show and giving her dangerous, crazy cult of conspiracy theorists mainstream credibility.

Yeah, he shares some degree of blame, IMO.

Quote

On the morning after the 2016 election, a group of nearly a dozen ABC executives gathered at their Burbank, Calif., headquarters to determine what Donald J. Trump’s victory meant for the network’s future.

“We looked at each other and said, ‘There’s a lot about this country we need to learn a lot more about, here on the coasts,’” Ben Sherwood, the president of Disney and ABC’s television group, said in an interview.

They began asking themselves which audiences they were not serving well and what they could do to better live up to the company name — the American Broadcasting Company. By the meeting’s end, they had in place the beginnings of a revised strategy that led the network to reboot a past hit centered on a struggling Midwestern family, a show that had a chance to appeal to the voters who had helped put Mr. Trump in the White House.

On Tuesday night, the strategy proved more successful than the executives had hoped: “Roseanne” premiered to the highest ratings for any network sitcom in almost four years.

The show’s approach to sociopolitical issues — its star and co-creator, Roseanne Barr, plays an unabashed Trump supporter who spars with her liberal sister, played by Laurie Metcalf — especially reverberated among heartland viewers. The top markets for the debut read like a political pollster’s red-state checklist: Cincinnati; Kansas City, Mo.; Tulsa, Okla. Liberal enclaves like New York and Los Angeles did not crack the top 20.

Reading about ABC's decision to go ahead with the show, what were they expecting?  It seems if Roseanne did anything wrong, it was taking her character too seriously.

Fox News lies about its ratings. Its demographic is also aged, tightwaddy and senile.

[JohnRedHorn 29]

Trump is just the most viscerally repugnant face of the decades long policy of the republican party to gain power by making thr shittiest of white people believe they are superior to even the best of non whites simply because of their white skin. The republicans sold their soul for cheap pandering to both the top wealthy elite whites (we will always do your bidding) and the poorest of garbage whites (we will constantly tell you how superior you are to everyone who is not white) at the same time.

Comedians get away with murder on stage: racism, misogyny, misanthropy, etc, etc.  She was on public twitter.  No way to couch her rudeness/crassness with: "just jokes" there. 

Did she actually have an interaction with the Jared lady on twitter or how did she come to her offending tweet towards her?  (Im not on twitter and don't follow Rosanne nor Jared if I were)  

Media people are ratings whores and the different iterations of Rosanne apparently got decent ratings.  It will be interesting if anyone picks it up after she goes to a treatment facility, or whatever she does to attempt to rehab her image.  Did I mention media people are whores for ratings?

She will be a co-host on Fox News. They'll bring her and Scott Baio on to discuss why we need a wall and why celebrities should stay out of politics, without a sense of irony.

Black Panther and Wonder Woman making so much money while getting critical acclaim have put an end to the pandering to stupifying bigotry. The Roseanne reboot wasn't hate filled, it was basically the prior show.

Donald Trump can't really raise money in America, he needs rogue foreigners to help him cheat the system. His behavior is bad business. And Roseanne's Twitter behavior is the same as Trump's.

Once again Hillary was right when she said "delete your account".

Hmmm, maybe everything happening is somebody's genius strategy to evolve America, by exposing then eliminating all its (not so) latent rottenness.

[Mojo Hand 4580]

Nobody is going to pick it up because it won't have any other actors.   I guess they can cast Chachi and Tim Allen, but it won't be quite the same.

They were outraged by her national anthem at the time. Now that she's a Trumpian they're letting that slide. The funny thing is they're the ones she was parodying when she grabbed her crotch and spat.
