In an interview on Fox News’ “Outnumbered” on Tuesday, comedian Roseanne Barr called out ABC for its double standard over Jimmy Kimmel and Joy Behar previously appearing in blackface.
Barr insisted that she should have been given an opportunity to go on various programs to defend the tweet she made about former Obama lackey Valerie Jarrett that led to her firing.
“I’m being used by a political machine which has exposed itself over the interceding five years since,” Barr explained.
Co-host Harris Faulkner asked, “And now you say what to them?”
“I say, you should’ve allowed me to go on your other news shows, particularly those ones hosted by people who have done blackface and you never fired them,” Barr insisted.
Barr then noted, “Joy Behar did blackface, you didn’t fire her. Jimmy Kimmel and his girlfriend Sarah Silverman, they did blackface and you never even said it was wrong that you did that, you know, they just let that go.”
The Daily Beast came to Kimmel’s defense after Barr’s comments by pointing out that he did make a tweet that somewhat defended her after the incident.
Kimmel did catch a lot of flack in the replies, but clearly, everyone has moved on and that was the end of it.

Roseanne Barr has it right! It is always rules for thee not for me, with liberals. We the American people are SICK OF IT. We don’t want to be censored, and we don’t want truth held away from us! Liberals spout their ‘opinon’ NOT fact, but they say it as if it IS fact! We are SICK of the rhetoric about Racism too! Who has a family of loved ones, that is not mixed with a combination of all races these days?? There are white, persons of color, and all backgrounds, and differences in EVERY family!!! Stop talking about it and forcing it down everyone’s throat, we are not in Jim crow days and none of us were slaves none of us owned slaves we are not that same generation let it go so people can heal! …and lastely… If you are gay, be gay but shut up about it! YOUR sex preferences are NOT MY CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE – have some damn morality! I don’t parade my sex life in public and no one gives a crap about yours. As far as trans….I don’t use your pronouns for the same reason I don’t talk to a schizophrenic’s imaginary friends. It is illogical, not science, not biology and I will not conform to it…so give it up already. Conservatives’ opinions and rights weigh exactly the same as anyone elses and we are FED UP.
