    We'll let people judge for themselves. She has spent the time since apologizing.

    I'd hate to be a comedian these days. Imagine how long Don Rickles would last in today's politically correct world.
    Rosanne was never "appropriate." She's funny. MAGA.

        Rosanne will have to commiserate with Tim Allen.
        It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

            True ... there are people from both sides of the political spectrum, who may be too extreme in what they consider humor

              Maybe, maybe not ... her latest tweet about Valerie Jarrett was seen by most readers as racist, however

              • Tim Allen's show was cancelled due to his right leaning politics and Obama jokes. If those on the left were treated equally, there would be nothing interesting on TV.

                    • I never thought Roseanne was funny and she's probably at least a little bit racist, but firing people because they say dumb things is a trend I wish would go away.

                      Doesn't matter what people think, or what people pretend to think. She didn't say anything about black people. She likes black people.

                      • U.S. Rep. Jason Smith sent out a tweet last month paralleling job growth with tax cuts, citing the George W.Bush, Reagan


                        wrt tax cuts supposedly creating jobs... There is virtually no evidence for it especially with tax cuts for the rich. The biggest multiplier effect comes from putting money in the hands of people who will spend it but the rich mostly save it so there is very little relation between more jobs and tax cuts for the rich. Yet Republicans are only interested in tax cuts for their donor class because that is where their bribes come from.

                          It definitely is a bad thing as it doesn't only affect Roseanne alone, but also the whole crew which worked on the series ... who are all, from one day to the other, jobless.
                          May have been better to find a solution like in "Two and a half men" .... where just Charlie Sheen was fired and the series continued without him, with Ashton Kutcher replacing him in the first season that startetd totally without Charlie

                          • The show is called Rosanne. It's nothing without her. ABCs loss. But America's loss too.

                            • Free market ... you cost your boss more than you bring in, you get canned. Tim and Roseanne crossed THAT line. There’s countless ways to do that in show business, which is why the vast vast majority of us don’t have shows.
