    This is just a general message to everyone on the board. We are living in the age of mass media manipulation and REAL fake news; special interest foreign and domestic groups whose goal is to divide us culturally and politically in order to break the American democracy.

    The problem with the Russian bot farms and how they infested social media in 2016 still hasn't been fixed. There's more misinformation now than ever on the interwebz, most of it coming from the Right.

    The reason I bring all this up is because that photo Bliss posted of Whoopi wearing a MAGA tee with Trump blowing his brains out isn't REAL.
    I had to check it out because if she did wear something so controversial, I didn't understand how the MSM missed it.


    Any time you see anything way over the top politically making one side look deliberately evil, you should spend a few minutes doing some basic research to see if you can find more than one source.

    Could she be mistaken for Persian?
    Meh, possibly. (She was born there and speaks fluent Farsi).
    In any case, she is African American by heritage. So Roesanne should have known better. Her tweet was stupid and not funny at all.

    Oh shit. That tweet was posted in A STORY in mainstream news publication. Do the AP reporters not fact check before publishing?

    Are you fucking kidding me, "mostly coming from the Right"?
    Oh man...give me a minute, Mr. putting kids in cages lying Left Media, lol...

    Also, speaking of Russian interference, they organized an anti-trump March right after he was elected..

    She still doesn't want to take responsibility. She doesn't want people to feel the need to defend her but still blames something else for her actions. She ain't fooling anyone.

    Not to mention the dangerous liberal hashtag lie she and the liberal MSM has been perpetuating all last week that Trump is responsible for 1500 missing illegal kids.

    'This is happening right now': Twitter users, including Obama's speech writer, slam ICE picture they believe shows 'cage' that separates immigrant children from their families under Trump - but it was actually taken in 2014 under Obama

    They probably all booked new shows by now, crew included. It's no different than if the show had been a flop and got cancelled, they'll be fine.

    Except Roseanne of course :D

    Boy do you love to reach. Kneeling for the anthem in protest is a 1st amendment issue just like your ilk thinks saying racist shit on twitter is too. Even though one is to protest police brutality and the other is tasteless and mean spirited. Pences brand of Christianity is mental illness when you claim to be a follower of Christ yet work to destroy poor people.

    Agree 100% with the bold above, well said Boba. Its not always from Russia, many racists or those with an agenda are pumping out fake information as well, and to be fair its not always coming from the right. Bliss has admitted multiple times that she does not fact check where she gets her pictures from, she just posts them in support of whatever point she is trying to make. Something that I have often called her out about, she then tries to play the victim, deflect blame, or starts in with the ad hominem attacks...

    Stop playing the fool. You know damn well you don't get to exercise your first amendment rights WHILE ON THE JOB. Your employer sets the rules to behavior WHILE ON THE CLOCK.
    Obviously, they can kneel for hours on their own personal time, no one gives a damn.
    Furthermore, they have been given the option to not attend during it. What then is your problem?

    They can also quit ther job, or boycott the season as they have threatened they will do. Soooo, we shall see. Money talks, bullshit walks.

    Ok boys and girls watching her nonsense tell me how is this any different for being let go because you don't uphold the standards of your place of work outside of work. Not to mention ABC is a privately owned company so if they don't want to keep you because you can affect advertising dollars.

    Hateful Hag Roseanne Blasts Cast After Losing Their Jobs

    05/30/2018


    Roseanne Barr has gone from an apology to everyone who worked on her ABC sitcom for her “stupid” tweet that cost them their jobs, to attacking any of them who dared to denounce/despair over that tweet comparing Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett to an ape.

    “Don’t feel sorry for me, guys!!,” Roseanne tweeted initially. “I just want to apologize to the hundreds of people and wonderful writers” (which she qualified with an “all liberal” in parens) and talented actors who lost their jobs on my show due to my stupid tweet.”

    But, in a renewed Twitter storm, Barr first lashed out at Michael Fishman, who played D.J. Connor on the original series and in the revival.

    Fishman whose character had a black daughter in the revival, had called Barr’s tweet “reprehensible and intolerable.”

    Spit back Roseanne:

    “I created the platform for that inclusivity and you know it. ME. You throw me under the bus. Nice!’

    Barr saved some venom for Sara Gilbert, who plays her daughter in the series, and who is credited with having put together the the revival. “Wow! unreal” she hissed in re Gilbert’s tweet saying, “I am disappointed in her actions to say the least.”

    Is he gay as well? Her show could check two inclusivity boxes at once.

    Many jobs don't fire you because of what you do on your private time.

    Just like ABC didn't fire Jemele Hill when she tweeted on her personal account that straight Black men (you) are the white people of the black community. And called Trump a White Supremacist. And the Boston Celtics Hitler, blah, blah. In the end they moved her to a different post that left her still with pen in hand and a paycheck.

    The NFL said we don't want anyone to kneel during our anthem during work hours. They have that right since they pay them their paychecks.
