She should start her own version of The View with Exene Cervenka and Victoria Jackson.

Naturally, I assumed that she was she was a person of normal skin color. HOW DARE YOU ASSUME THAT I'M RACIST? It's because I voted for Trump, isn't it?.
Wouldn't you just know it? Imagine the bad luck of innocently calling someone an ape publically and then having them turn out to be black!
But the plot thickens, like you knew it would. Here's a quote from her original apology.
>>>“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.”
How can you make a joke about someone's looks and not know they're black?
On one hand, I don't really approve of people losing their jobs for saying the wrong thing. Prejudice, in one form or another, is a human weakness, that is pretty close to universal, and making people pay the ultimate career price for accidentally letting their ugly side show is going to make it harder for people to really look at themselves.
On the other hand, fuck you, Roseanne. Even if your mean degrading personal attack was misunderstood, that doesn't make you an innocent victim.

TRUMP VOTERS: "the problem with you media types is that you never listen to what we have to say!"
MEDIA:"What do you have to say?"
TRUMP VOTERS: "We're belligerent racist turds!"

Dear Roseanne,
You were the worst part of the original show, and the worst part of your recently cancelled show. You were never funny, and your success is frankly inexplicable.
Love,
yogarfield
ps Lay off the tanning beds. Y ou're on a Cryptkeeper / Kellyanne Conway route, and there's no coming back from that.

Didn't Roseanne 1 feature one of the first gay kisses on TV? No credit for that? Maybe give her the chance to fake apologize so she can get some pretend fogiveness

Anaxagoras - 2018-07-23 Nope. Not really.
Contrary to how it's often portrayed in the media, our judgements of people isn't a simple set of scales with "Good stuff" on one side and "bad stuff"on the other other. See, even if you fund tons of women's rights movements, you don't get to then rape women at will. (See: Harvey Feinstein) Similarly, if you feature the first gay kiss, you don't get to be a racist douchebag.
If you have questions, feel free to see me after class.
