The most popular new TV show in America was canceled in a matter of hours Tuesday.
All it took was a few satirical tweets from Roseanne Barr about Barack Obama’s top adviser Valerie Jarrett and executives at ABC and its parent company, Disney, decided to pull the plug on “Roseanne.”
The view inside Disney, according to sources, was that Barr’s criticism of Jarrett marked the third or fourth time when the Trump-supporting comedian’s “unsurvivable” tweets had presented a problem for ABC.
“Enough was enough,” an inside source told CNN.
“Inside ABC, there’s now a sense of pride in how quickly this controversy was contained,” CNN reported.
But what about the treatment of left leaning entertainers who say the most hateful things in the book and get a pass?
