I’m not going to watch the interview between Roseanne Barr and Sean Hannity. Honestly, I hate him more than her, although they’re both garbage-dump people. I’m including the video below, in case you’re a masochist. Trust me when I say that I truly believe you could find much better ways to spend 20 minutes. This was Roseanne’s first for-real interview since ABC fired her racist ass for her tweet comparing Valerie Jarrett to “planet of the apes + muslim brotherhood.” Barr has spoken quite regularly since then, of course, tweeting apologies and explanations and posting crazy-seeming videos to her YouTube page. But this is her first honest-to-God television interview. And of course she gave it to Sean Hannity.
So, obviously, I’m just going from what other outlets are reporting about this. Apparently, Hannity had to repeatedly prompt Barr to apologize, which she did… and then she insulted Valerie Jarrett’s hair. And Roseanne also seems to think that Valerie Jarrett, like, got her fired. Valerie Jarrett didn’t do anything but take a call of apology from the head of ABC. ABC decided to fire Roseanne on their own, but of course Roseanne is acting like she was personally victimized by big mean Valerie Jarrett. The audacity of this bitch, I swear. Some quotes:
On Jarrett’s race: “You could have knocked me over with a feather when they said she was African-American. I thought she was Middle Eastern.”
Why she tweeted what she did: “That is a tweet about asking for accountability from the previous administration about the Iran deal, which Valerie Jarrett is the author of, and that was what was in my head.'”
Addressing Jarrett, Roseanne said: “Don’t assume you know what I meant because I think you don’t know what I meant and I would like to make it clear to you what I did mean…. I’m so sorry that you thought I was racist and that you thought my tweet was racist, because it wasn’t. It was political. I’m sorry that you feel harmed and hurt. I never meant that and for that I apologize.”
But she then insulted Jarrett’s appearance: “Plus I’d tell her she’s gotta get a new haircut, I mean seriously, she needs a new haircut.”
How many different explanations and excuses is she going to go through? And why does she think it’s totally fine to call a Middle-Eastern person an ape? And why does Jarrett need a new haircut? We’ll never know the answers to any of those questions, because none of them matter. Roseanne is so pathetic, but don’t you dare feel sorry for her. She quite literally brought this all on herself.
