I saw this come across on Twitter when I looked this morning, but it might be fake since they are the only ones reporting it.

Only site I could find it on was a news parody site claiming Fox was 'ok with occasional racism.'
Meanwhile, MSNBC has gone full Deplorable.
http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/20 ... -barr.htmlNow watch this cockroach backpeddle and claim "significant" is less than 1%.

Here's one story I read on this:
Title:Why ABC had no choice but to dump Roseanne
The threat of massive advertiser boycotts outweighs any fear of stoking Trump’s fury, experts say.

Someone else is offering her a spot for her show. Of course, with this being a new start-up, it would be a benefit for him.

Once she grabbed her crotch during the SSB, I stopped caring what she did.

And spit at the same time.
Yep. Never watched the original but did watch the first 2 eps of new show.
The greatest thing that's come out about all of this is the hypocrisy of the left and took their eye off of Trump for a few days. Trump probably killed a few more Obama executive orders that haven't been reported.

Yes, yes, you should take the Bee lady to see your granny - so granny can knock the shit out of her for being lower than meth head trailer trash without a license.

While "feckless c***" is bad, it's not racist. All this namecalling needs to stop though!

I believe that falls into the sexist category.

Is it sexist if a woman says it about another woman?

Based on another popular example involved in the racism debate, I do not think so.
But... Logical thought process and equal treatment don't seem to be part of this equation, so we'd need to hear from the experts at CNN and other MSM to find out just exactly what is right and what is wrong.
Thank god that they're here for us.
