Seems her agency dropped her too:

“We are all greatly distressed by the disgraceful and unacceptable tweet from Roseanne Barr this morning,” the agency’s leadership said in an internal memo to company employees, according to Deadline.com.

“What she wrote,” continues the ICM statement, “is antithetical to our core values, both as individuals and as an agency. Consequently, we have notified her that we will not represent her. Effective immediately, Roseanne Barr is no longer a client.”

Are you seriously comparing these two things?
I'm laughing at the left. Roseanne says some stupid shit and she's canned, Olbermann says some stupid shit and he's re-hired. He strung words together and didn't just sound like a fifth grader, he sounded like one that should be institutionalized.

Yes, she got fired for being racist. I hope you extracted necessary lessons from that.

But you get the difference between what each one of them said right?
Not HOW they said it, but WHAT they said.
Please, for what little faith I have left in mankind and the voting public, tell me you can see the difference...

The EEOC has ruled that under the ADA employers must make reasonable accommodations for anyone suffering from TDS.

Well Rosanne is a disease. You are as well.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Though I will say, this show doesn't pertain to me - but based on media reporting it sounded like it had a lot of viewers?

Wouldn't be surprised if there was some backlash from this.

Either way, don't care - pass the popcorn though.

SOOOOOOO......
This means "ONLY" Donald Trump can act like an ass AND... get away with it?
Just exactly as Donnie had planned.
Everyone else, like "EVERYONE ELSE", will be fired, screwed, hanged, shot, molested, raped, ran out of Dodge, and..... did I mention FIRED?
Everyone except YOU KNOW WHO.....

But I knew we had a problem with her when she publicly proclaimed and imagined how WONDERFUL things would be under a president Donald Trump.
I knew she had severe brain damage.
Probably from all those high intensity TV lights for all those Roseanne years.
I hear high intensity can cause brain retardation.
Now, we have proof.

LOL!

ESPN (parent Disney, owns ABC and ESPN) had no issues with Olbermann's twitter rant cause they just re-hired him.

http://www.pacificpundit.com/2018/05/29/abc-just-hired-keith-olbermann-this-is-one-of-his-tweets/

I'd quote it but the powers that be more than likely wouldn't appreciate me quoting him. It's a classic Olbermann rant though. Real highbrow stuff.

Remind me how Mexicans, Jews, Muslims, Gays whatever chose to be born what they are, compared to how Donald Trump and other Nazis actually chose to be hateful bigot asshole motherfucking Nazi pricks.

Please, continue to try and compare those two.

Now, I'll give you the language. That is one damn unprofessional series of tweets. I guess we'll see if that causes him a good bit of trouble. I am sure the Trumptardians will make sure that ABC/Disney are aware of it.

I hope they'll leave Mickey out of it. He's a National Treasure that should never be defiled!
