Roseanne said something about black people and her show in reruns was taken down. She left the current show to save it.

TVLand made a huge deal and cancelled her reruns. Yeah, for two weeks.i watch her reruns on weekends and if ratings were poor, they’d switch shows.

People say stupid things when younger but someone needs to tarnish their name and bring it up. It’s done here,too. People look up old posts to bash posters.

If this story goes big, they’ll pull his movies for a while. They’re only hurting the advertisers. I doubt John Wayne’s heirs make money from his old movies.

Your grandmother and my bubbe learned that they were brought up to dislike someone but as they aged, realized that they are just like everyone.
