Roseanne's agent just dropped her

[EffieBlack]

This is getting good.

It's particularly interesting that this is all happening less than a week after Trump fans cheered when an employer cracked down on their employees' speech. I wonder how they're going to square this circle.

1. I guess her dogma got run over by her karma.

[Lint Head]

2. This is gonna be GOOOOOOD!!

[HipChick]

3. and may the fallout continue...

[Aristus]

4. Well imagine the phone calls one would have to make to get her work offers

from now on.

Her former agent is wisely dodging that minefield...

[PJMcK]

5. She blew her contract

The agent can't receive the commission if there's no income. It's really simple.

Plus, Barr is an ass.

Smart agent.

6. When it rains it pours......

Want to bet Trump nominates Roseanne for a position in the Administration or a Cabinet post.

[MrScorpio]

7. Excellent

[Hekate]

8. Ya think she'll get the message that she crossed a line?

...
...
Nah, I don't think so, either.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

9. Hopefully off the roof!

Of a very tall building!

[Initech]

10. Down in flames!

Maybe she can take her show to Alex Jones' new channel.

19. I said they same thing in a different thread and now just read yours. It would be a good fit.

11. BWAHAHAHAHA ... I love it.

I hope she's up to her eyebrows in debt.

[RockRaven]

12. I wonder who else that agent/agency represent who they are worried about losing as a client

if they didn't ditch her.

[DURHAM D]

13. Is it okay for me to love the fact that the person who fired

Roseanne is an AA woman -- Channing Dungey?

[Chickensoup]

14. Roseanne being Jewish should know better

than being racist. It is like a jew joins the ranks of the neo-nazi.
shame on you.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

25. Here she is showing that, as a jew, she knows better

One would have thought it alone would have been enough to fire her:

[Solly Mack]

15. Bye, Felicia.

[Leghorn21]

16. Came here to post this, Effie - excellent news!!:

Roseanne Barr was dropped by her talent agency, ICM Partners, who said her “disgraceful and unacceptable tweet” was “antithetical to our core values, both as individuals and as an agency. Consequently, we have notified her that we will not represent her.”

17. The right wing response ought to be consistent. Barr was an employee of ABC.

ABC is in the business of attracting the broadest customer base possible. No different than the NFL.

[sunonmars]

18. and she'll be blacklisted by every agent out there.

[wryter2000]

20. Career over

At least one would hope it is.

[Auggie]

23. Maybe small right-wing venues ... perhaps a low-budget (and quiet) producing gig

I think she'll be back in five years.

[cungar2000]

24. I'm sure she can still do shows in the Deep South and Midwest

Until they find out she's Jewish

21. March 27-May 29.

She lasted a little longer than some Trump appointees.

[BigmanPigman]

22. She said she likes to criminal profile people

among other crazy shit...

"I am really into forensic psychiatry and criminal profiling."

She also said that is ADHD, bipolar, has multiple personalities, etc. but pot cures these psychological issues. Sure, Roseanne, if you say so.

When children are in charge, the world becomes imperiled.

27. That is an interesting connection - thanks for pointing it out

It is not like the right cares about making sense of things.

I suspect it will take their think tanks to come up with some wild takes on all this.

[marble falls]

28. Finally. We found something a Hollywood agent just will not stoop to!
