Also Roseanne needs a seat in the cabinet, ABC cost people 500 jobs because of SJWs. I hope all the crew on 30k get a big cheque next week.

Oh shut it, would you?

What Barr said was reprehensible (this should not need to be argued) and no sane studio would keep that damage to their brand, not least of all one owned by the Mouse. You cannot blame everything on SJWs and its fucking ridiculous how much of a scapegoat you see them as.

What she said was reprehensible and ABC has every right to not want to be associated with a bigot like her.

Ok, so?

The other 499 people on the project are not responsible for her views.

Regardless, the show is meant to represent white working class Americans. It did.

Welcome to my world. I feel the same way about reprehensible liberals who feel it is ok to relay their diatribe because some moron in Hollywood feels the same way.

What is it about Barr's comment you find so utterly capital punishment worthy? The show is meant to represent a white working class family. Ie. people who make those type of jokes.

At the start of this week, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross was likely full of hope. Despite the fact that his stock in the White House had plummeted, and he’d gone from one of Donald Trump’s favorite Cabinet members to being humiliated in front of his colleagues in the Oval Office, the former investment manager had been granted permission to participate in trade talks in China, after previously having the president tell him “your understanding of trade is terrible.” With the upcoming negotiations, scheduled to begin on Saturday, Ross, who’s had trouble staying awake during meetings of late, presumably saw an opportunity to win Trump back, and return to those happy days when the president was calling him a “killer” instead of reaming him out and questioning his “intelligence and competence.” Unfortunately for ole Wilbur, his planned comeback has hit a giant orange roadblock.

The Wall Street Journal reports that thanks to Trump’s surprise decision to move ahead with tariffs on Chinese imports roughly one week after suspending them, this weekend’s settlement talks might not happen. Beijing, caught off guard by the 180 from Washington, is said to be understandably pissed about being jerked around by Team Trump, with Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying saying on Wednesday, “Every flip-flop and U-turn is simply depleting and squandering [U.S.] credibility.” Though Lester Ross, head of the policy committee of the American Chamber of Commerce in China (and no relation to Wilbur) characterized the announcement as simply a “negotiating step,” critics in Beijing believe Trump’s dealmaking tactics are getting old, and fast. “Trump overplayed this ‘unpredictability’ strategy,” Mei Xinyu, an analyst at a think tank affiliated with China’s Commerce Ministry, wrote in an article for People’s Daily. “Since the U.S. side can talk about imposing tariffs again, we can also put forward our previously published retaliation lists,” Mei added, suggesting that China hit back with tariffs on soybeans, sorghum, and other goods produced by farmers in Trump country.

Every white working class person is not a racist, bigoted anti semite like her and it is Abc's right to cancel her show.

And some Hollywood people say awful things too but they are not racist bigots like her.

No they didn't, neither did Disney/Viacom have to stop airing reruns on their networks for syndication.
