Social Roseanne tweets outrageously racist comment about former Obama staffer Valerie Jarrett

[Rematch]

She also said something similar about Condelezza Rice, hmm what do these 2 women have in common?

Associates of politicians Roseanne did not agree with?

But that's not what he said there. He said that maybe they passed up other jobs to take this one. Which is normal in Hollywood, you take one gig at the expense of other gigs. Which would mean that this ending prematurely was an economic loss, assuming that they had other potential work opportunities.

It's a good lesson that when you rely on somebody or some entity that is fallible, they can fail you. She created those jobs by being who she is. She also destroyed them doing the same.

Think of the parallels with government and pretty much anything they touch

 

[Rematch]

Yeah, but she didn't. I happen to think it was a jab at the lady's resemblance to the old school POTA figures, BUT...

It's still bad. What's ABC supposed to do here? Release a statement saying,

"No, no, no, you misunderstood, people. Roseanne's comments weren't intentionally racist. She was merely stating her opinion that Mrs Valerie Jarrett looks a bit like those ape-like creatures from "Planet Of The Apes". We know your mind automatically goes to racism when an African American descendant is compared to an ape, but that's just not the case here...we think. As for that "Muslim Brotherhood" quip, meh. We just want to make it clear that she wasn't being racist. She was merely being hateful. Relax.

Tune into "Roseanne" this fall!"

Yeah. That would have been fuckin' awkward.

BTW, Hulu removed the reboot from their servers already. I figured it would be removed eventually but damn that was timely. You best fall in line! Lol

Damn how embarrassing for her co-stars. That’s got to be a kick in the balls knowing your show was cancelled because of somebody elses tweet

 

[HomerThompson]

"You look foolish, Simpson!"

"Oh Simpson, can't you go 5 seconds without embarrassing yourself?"

Live by the Roseanne. Die by the Roseanne.

Well, at east DJ and Becky live by that motto.

 

[HomerThompson]

They shouldn't. It's a business decision. She tweeted something extremely stupid, and paid consequence. Unfortunately, she also cost a lot of people their jobs.

The same deal with the NFL kneeling thing. That's their decision to place some rule, if they were losing revenue last year because of it.

I disagree that it's the same.

Pretty much.

I feel badly because season two was in preproduction. Lots of people rearranged their lives and made plans around this gig.

What a fucking dope.

 

[Mr. Shickadance]

I think it sucks it got cancelled.

I think it should have been addressed another way, maybe it still will on a talk show run or something.

But what she said was dumb and inexcusable and apparently its not the only thing. I don't follow Twitter so her other crazy tweets are new to me.

Loved the first run of the show only caught a couple episodes of the reboot but I liked it.

One thing I wonder though is in the future with method actors will they make racist and stupid tweets if the get roles like Trump or Roseanne Barr in their bio-pics

Becky's got that Rick and Morty cash, son.

How many of you are familiar with the concept of a "tontine"?

...all right, Ox. Why don't you take us through it?

It wasn’t him. It was a reasonable poster.

There was no way in hell anyone associated with financing the show wanted to be dipped in the same shit.
Everyone who ditched it gave similar versions of "it was the right decision, the only decision, this kind of racism has no place yadda yadda..."

Money talks. Roseanne money spoke loudly but revenue loss uses a bullhorn .

LOL, that episode is an all time great one.

 

[The Diplomat]

I disagree that it's the same.

How so? Both are owned by companies, making private business decisions, no?

The intentions and practices are different, but wouldn't both fall under the same legal guidelines? Whether or not we agree with those decisions.

 

[Rational Poster]

I wonder what she'll tweet now.

 

[The Diplomat]

Becky's got that Rick and Morty cash, son.

That's the second Becky. The original Becky is still screwed.

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

I wonder what she'll tweet now.

She apologized, but I'll bet anything she'll be playing the victim soon enough.
