She should have used the Anderson Cooper/Joy Reid "I was hacked" or "I don't remember saying that" defense...It worked like a charm for them.

Never get drunk and tweet.

Better yet, just don't ever tweet, it seems to be the undoing of far too many people.

This annoys me as you JUST KNOW the Left is jubilant now and will go around saying how they were right about "Trump's show" being so awful and racist and Barr being a Trump supporter represents us all.

But I sense a double standard.






"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I was done with her after she made a mockery of the National Anthem back in 1990.

So, she comments on Jarrett's looks and her beliefs, and this makes her a racist? Confused

OK then.

Anybody else get the impression ABC was just looking for a reason to cancel the show?

Yes, absolutely. They jumped at the chance. They probably can't believe just how perfect this worked out for them.

I was a ratings winner. I highly doubt they were looking for an excuse to cancel it.

I don't know if VJ is black or Middle Eastern, but making an ape joke about somebody a lot of people think is black is going to get you into hot water, not unreasonably IMO, even if it wasn't intended as a racial joke.

I hate PC and people crying "racist" when there's no evidence of actual racism, but anyone over age 13 otta know how a joke about a black person and apes is not going to go over well.

That being said, I'm sure none of the ABC late night hosts and their guests have made jokes about Trump, his family, and their race...

Man, I must have been asleep for 8 years - I didn't know Valerie Jarrett was black.


link to Wikipedia article, source of above photo

But, yeah, assuming Rosanne was more aware of that than I was, that was not a genius tweet.

I wouldn't have guessed she was Afro-Iranian American either. I would have guessed Hispanic.

Her wikipedia pages says "Her parents were both African American; on the television series Finding Your Roots, genealogical research and DNA testing indicated that Jarrett also has French, Scottish, and Native American ancestry."

This is no great loss. The network had already said they were going to cut back on the Trump stuff, and there was a young male teen/preteen walking around in a freakin' dress.
