BREAKING: ABC Cancels ‘Roseanne’
ABC announced it is canceling their hit show “Roseanne” Tuesday afternoon.
The ABC president announced the news in a statement calling Roseanne Barr’s Tweets “abhorrent” and “repugnant.”
Sorry, Roseanne, it’s okay for Liberals to talk trash but not Conservatives. Conservatives need to boycott ABC, Disney, and ESPN.

This comes just hours after Roseanne Barr went on a Twitter rant and rips ex-Obama aide Valerie Jarrett, calling the former Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett a combination of “Planet of the Apes” and the “Muslim Brotherhood.”
Roseanne Barr since deleted the tweet and apologized, saying the comments were made in “bad taste.”
I apologize to Valerie Jarrett and to all Americans. I am truly sorry for making a bad joke about her politics and her looks. I should have known better. Forgive me-my joke was in bad taste.
