On Tuesday, just hours after Roseanne Barr apologized for her tweet describing former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett as the love child of the Muslim Brotherhood and “Planet of the Apes,” ABC announced that it was canceling “Roseanne” over the star’s “abhorrent” and “repugnant” statement. (Barr has since suggested that she didn’t realize Jarrett is part-black and blamed “Ambien tweeting” for her bad judgment.)
The abrupt cancelation of the hit reboot of the show was met with applause from many, particularly her fellow celebrities who find Barr’s pro-Trumpism unbearable, but it was also met from the right by many who pointed out the double standard of the media, particularly ABC.
