I hope another network picks it up.  There is so little to watch on TV.

It will absolutely be picked up and back on by the Fall @saltysails.  Probably by the network that is doing Tim Allen's Last Man Standing that ABC just cancelled.  Rosanne is not going anywhere but our living rooms.

Please do not include every one in your comments.  Such beliefs and actions may be tolerated in your home, not in mine.

ABC did exactly the right thing. She's said other outrageous, bigoted things in the past. Any apology she tries now is meaningless. You're not really sorry of you keep doing the same terrible things.

I see some posters are hoping Fox picks up the show. That is as terrifying wrong as what she said.

Comparing her comments to people hoping a television show the employees 100s of people is picked up be another network.

   Of course she shouldn't have "said" (or tweeted), what she did, but nearly every public figure misspeaks at times and has to apologize. I think she is genuinely sorry. I like her very much.

@YorkieonmyPillow  Ironic we haven't canceled Twitter yet, isn't it?    You know how many world problems we could solve with just that action alone? LOL

Enjoyed the reboot of her show and feel bad for the cast who all signed on for the series.

Fox is not defending her. They have said it's awful.

I looked for them defending her after reading that post but could not find it @Teacups.  If reporting something is defending than all the networks down to the high school newspapers are guilty of a great deal.

@Teacups

heard on tv......

“I don’t understand it to be anything other than free speech,” said Outnumbered Overtime host Harris Faulkner. “…It is extremely offensive but it is just that.

Strategist Noelle Nikpour agreed. “She is a comedian,” she said. “She does have a very wicked, twisted sense of humor. Everybody knows her to be a little raunchy and a little rough.”

I am not watching but reading coverage so I have no idea what reporters or saying or the tone they use.  I look at words instead, but thanks for letting me know @sunshine45

The only reason she is sorry is because of the money, she said what she meant.

[sidsmom]

‘Misspeaks?’

Wow.

Ya might want to look at her pattern.

A veryveryveryveryveryveryveryvery looooooooong history. 

[esmerelda]

Some were looking for a reason to cancel the show and unfortunately she gave them one.

As far as who is reporting it and who isn't...what's newsworthy about this story?  There are important things going and that are ignored by the very ones covering this like it's real news.
