I am hurt, embarrassed, and disappointed. The racist and distasteful comments from Roseanne are inexcusable.

As I called my manager to quit working on Roseanne, I was told it was cancelled. I feel so empowered by @iamwandasykes , Channing Dungey and anyone at ABC standing up for morals and abuse of power. Bullies will NEVER win.

1. Finally

As Bill Maher pointed out Roseanne Barr used to be a person that you could count on to be level headed. There were points in her life that seemed to be a running commentary of the current events of the time.
Her comments in the year year and a half. Support of 45 election victory, along with the ex-Obama aide slur have sent her to the unemployment line. What manure pile did she get these from? The higher up canned this loser.

3. Yes. She came with stars in her eyes.

And sge was destroyed by those evil Democrats.

4. Another beautiful life destroyed...how many more?

It will be interesting to hear what her co-stars think about how her behavior affected THEIR beautiful lives.

5. affects

9. Since the re-runs

of her older show have been cancelled, they will not receive residual checks. So, many, many actors will be affected by her callous actions. Backing tRump affects so many lives, even the people who do not support him.

10. I Hadn't heard of her either. I do like our younger generation boldly standing up against racism.

Especially at a financial cost. I would like to hear more from her. She is a good example for her generation.

12. ...

8. What a smart young woman!

And what a shame for her. That part was perfect for her. So many are people thrown out of work now!

11. Emma Rose Kenney is known for the Showtime series, Shameless

for those who don't know about her. The reruns are on Netflix and it is possible to pay for Showtime online without cable for those who want to watch. She's a talented young actress who started on that show when she was like 10 or 11.

I think she's more talented than Roseanne and will have a better career. Some of the lesser known actors/actresses are more screwed.

13. But she joined a show where the headliner was well known.

Nice try Emma.
