ABC drops Roseanne Barr's show after racist tweet

[hadi123]

ABC television network has cancelled comedian Roseanne Barr's show after she posted a racist tweet comparing a former Obama adviser to an ape.

ABC said: "Roseanne's Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values and we have decided to cancel her show."

Barr's tweet said Valerie Jarrett was the child of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes film.

She deleted the post and apologised for a "bad joke".

She took it too far,it looked like a good reboot, the one on Muslim neighbor I saw the clip and it looked kinda funny.

I think Fox LL pick it up, networks are weird nowadays even their TV shows are based on their bias, NBC took up Brooklyn nine(from fox) and Fox picked The last Man standing from abc.

Think Fox LL pickup Roseane from.abc too now.

It seem, every person that Trump has praised is eventually coming out as a racist.
