Roseanne Describes Her Desperate Conversation With ABC Before Firing

In a series of since-deleted tweets on Thursday, Roseanne Barr described what she said went down between her and Disney-ABC Television Group President Ben Sherwood right before the company publicly announced that they’d canceled her rebooted hit sit-com.

“I begged Ben Sherwood at ABC 2 let me apologize & make amends,” wrote Barr in a series of tweets. “I begged them not to cancel the show.”
