being roseanne.trol her the first time she was on the air. she had a lot of skpeszive behavior back then. i think they felt like this was a great gamble. the audience would be there. and the audience was, but they got the real roseanne, what they should have anticipated. this is who she is. she's a person you can't reline on and has got unhinged views and clearly this racist view that is completely intolerable to everybody. finally got to the point where abc said we can't put this on anymore. we can't take the heat. the disney corporation is the most image conscious perhaps entertain m corporation in the world, and they have this woman basically spouting conspiracy theories and extreme racist views. i think they felt like they had to act. >> comparing barack obama's former senior adviser to being an ape, and a few years ago in 2013, she compared susan rice, president obama's national security adviser, i won't even read the disgusting tweet she put out then to an ape as well. joey jackson, when you he

this is who roseanne is. and the one part i agree with is abc knew about all this and let her have a show, anyway, because they thought the show would then temper her outbursts, if you will, on twitter. so, again, if a network wants to put roseanne back on their network, that will be on them. that will be on those advertisers that decide to side with bigotry, islam-o-phobia, racism and sexism. i just want to defend why i laugh because i think it's laughable to assert that this isn't who roseanne is. this is who roseanne has always been. she's told us who she was. >> i didn't know you knew her so well. i didn't know that. >> i just want to know, roseanne -- >> i don't know her. i can't defend her or insult her. >> you have defended her. >> i tell you this -- >> go ahead, michael. >> oh, wait, are you now interrupting people? because you just said, oh, please don't interrupt me. you sounded so offended. >> i appreciate both your perspectives. okay. symone sanders, michael caputo, thanks very much. >>> coming up

i had a source at disney say to me, yesterday, roseanne connor is not roseanne barr. roseanne connor is hilarious and warm and someone you want to watch on tv. when she's playing that character, that's someone you want to watch. roseanne barr is not able to control or restrain herself. there's no excuse for that. just take the phone away. just put the twitter device down. it's as easy as that. she stepped it in again and again and again and enough was enough. there was no way to come back from this. her tweets on tuesday were quote/unquote, unsurvivable. >> and her apologies are odd as well. they're uncensored. she's even saying to her supporters, don't defend me, don't boycott abc, but then she's blaming it on ambien. when she's faulting ambien, how seriously can you take the apology part? >> you really can't. i think she's just floundering to fine some excuse where her -- where she can escape the p.r. debacle that it is. she said all the right things in march when the first came on the air. she's a new person. she's not going to do politics. but, of course, i just t
