Sarah Sanders Just Released Sudden White House Statement About Roseanne

At this point in time it’s impossible to not hear about, or have an opinion about the fact that because of an offensive late night tweet by Roseanne Barr, ABC decided to try to convince people that they actually have morals and values by canceling her top-rated show. Everywhere you look online or TV everyone has an opinion about what transpired between Roseanne and her Twitter page. But since the media needs to take one step further, and since nothing else sticks, they are now trying to use a tweet in bad taste to topple the President of the United States by asking White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders to comment about this unfortunate incident which Roseanne has already apologized for.
But since Sanders is so much smarter than any of these 3rd rate journalists who get paid to camp out at the White House just in case there is a chance to fan over a Democrat President or attack a Republican one, she didn’t play into their devious plan.
This was really the only possible answer the Press Secretary could have given a reporter who clearly was ready to set up this question as a gotcha moment since journalism is now d**d and all they have become are soldiers in the cause to forward Liberalism and the far left agenda.
Everyone seems to be talking about this, but let’s be honest here, this nothing worse than what hacks such as Keith Olbermann, Samantha Bee, and Jimmy Kimmel has said about President Trump and us, his supporters. The difference here is Roseanne actually apologized for her comments, the others haven’t. Kimmel even laughed at Melania Trump’s accent and he still has a job.
“Where was Bob Iger’s apology to the White House staff for Jamele Hill calling the President, and anyone associated with him, a white supremacist? To Christians around the world for Joy Behar calling Christianity a mental illness? Where was the apology for Kathy Griffin going on a profane rant against the President on The View after a photo showed her holding President Trump’s decapitated head? And where was the apology from Bog Iger for ESPN hiring Keith Olbermann after his numerous expletive-laced tweets attacking the President as a Nazi and even expanding Olbermann’s role after that attack against the President’s family. This is a double-standard that the President is speaking about, nobody is defending her comments, they’re inappropriate but that’s what the point that he was making,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said.
ABC has every right to keep all the liberal offenders on the air, but we as viewers also have every right to not watch. And also to boycott those advertisers who choose to support those offenders with their advertising dollars. If ABC finally found “Morals and Values,” it’s time we also use our own and uphold ours with our pocketbooks. Don’t you agree?
Here is more from Politico:
“President Donald Trump complained Thursday that ABC operates under a “double standard” that punished comic Roseanne Barr for a racist tweet but offered Trump no apology after an erroneous story involving former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
“Iger, where is my call of apology? You and ABC have offended millions of people, and they demand a response,” the president wrote on Twitter, addressing Disney executive Bob Iger, whose company owns ABC and who reportedly phoned Valerie Jarrett, the former Barack Obama adviser who was the target of Barr’s racist comment, to tell her that Barr’s sitcom had been canceled.
“How is Brian Ross doing? He tanked the market with an ABC lie, yet no apology. Double Standard!” the president continued.
Ross, ABC News’ chief investigative correspondent, was suspended for four weeks late last year after he erroneously reported that Flynn, as part of his deal with prosecutors, would testify that the president “directed him to make contact with the Russians.” That report proved to be inaccurate, prompting Ross’ suspension and later reassignment to a different division of ABC News where he no longer covers stories involving the president.
Despite Trump’s suggestion that the network did not apologize for the error, ABC News released a statement shortly after retracting Ross’ reporting that said, “we deeply regret and apologize for the serious error we made yesterday.”
Stocks in the U.S. did briefly drop on the same day that Ross’ erroneous story broke — although it’s unclear how much of that drop resulted from the incorrect reporting — but mostly recovered by the end of the day.
Trump has yet to personally condemn the remarks by Barr, who wrote on Twitter that Jarrett was the product of the “muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes” having “a baby,” but White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders did say Wednesday that the comedian’s comments were “inappropriate.”
