Yep...over a shitty show to begin with. The threats of boycotts are beginning, the sad attempt to make up excuses for Roseanne's racist tweet today, seriously some are truly pathetic to have a justifiable excuse of why she said what she said. "OH IT WAS THE TRUTH!" some say. "HER FREEDOM OF SPEECH WAS VIOLATED!" For a group of so called patriots that supposedly love the constitution, they sure don't know shit about it. The first amendment protects you from government censorship, that doesn't apply to a private company so at some point did I miss ABC being government ran? Oh they aren't? You mean these people are just fucking stupid? Thought so.
All in all, I'm glad they canceled this shit and I'm glad her actions are followed by a consequence now. Hope no other network picks it up, but if one does. It'll either be Fox, CMT or Hallmark.

Unacceptable forms of policy debate: "You're a doody head"
ABC was doing their best to sell us on racism just being "the other side" of the debate. Fuck them all to hell!

I wonder how many of the same right-wingers pitching fits about her version of the Star Spangled Banner are busy raving about ABC firing her?

(32,080 posts)It has reached a point where few people even want to work with her. Some of the writers, producers, and actors quit the show before it even got cancelled.
