because of the backlash and unpopularity of it (and to disguise the propaganda nature of the show). So they were attempting to dial back the station a bit on that...but Roseanne is Roseanne.

I think what may have happened is that she has been posting in conservative forums, where that sort of talk is commonplace. She forgot that the real world doesn't accept disgusting talk like that. And it is disgusting. Calling a black person anything related to you know what comes straight out of the old KKK book and is among the worst of things you can say. Or maybe it's just me who is particularly offended by the particular statement she made. There was one like it made about Michelle Obama not too long ago, as well as a photo that made the rounds. I just find that very offensive...and it's a particular thing that makes the conservative circuit.
