See How Roseanne Reacts To Show Cancellation In Her Tweet
Updated : May 31, 2018 01:05 PM IST Roseanne Barr is in the news due to the cancellation of her show earlier today following her own racist Twitter rant. A few hours after Roseanne sent and then deleted a series of racist tweets about former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett, ABC canceled the reboot of her show with one blunt statement from President Channing Dungey which reads, “Roseanne's Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show”.
On ABC’s decision, Roseanne finally sent out a tweet of her own. She wrote, “Don’t feel sorry for me, guys!!" it said. "I just want to apologize to the hundreds of people, and wonderful writers (all liberal) and talented actors who lost their jobs on my show due to my stupid tweet. I will be on Joe Rogan's podcast Friday”.
Barr wrote on Tuesday, which is now deleted, "Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj." When many Twitter users pointed out the tweet's racist nature, Barr reacted with another now-deleted tweet and wrote, "Muslims r NOT a race”. She then apologized for what she called a "bad joke about her politics and her looks" and declared she was leaving Twitter, before returning to hand out a few retweets.
