'Roseanne' Canceled By ABC After Roseanne Barr's Racist Tweet
Roseanne has been cancelled at ABC.
The decision was made moments ago by Channing Dungey, president at ABC Entertainment, after Roseanne Barr sent out a racist tweet after President Obama’s adviser Valerie Jarrett.
“Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” Channing said in a statement.
Celebrities have been slamming Roseanne‘s tweet all morning and there’s been a call for ABC to cancel the show amid the star’s controversial views.
The show had been previously renewed earlier this year.
