If you are going to hire a racist bigot, have the backbone to stick up for them. Don't just benefit from them when the going is good.

They knew who they were elevating. They did it with the full backing of their corporation.

I'm sick of people doing things like this and then others giving them praise.

Come on ABC. Fight for Roseanne and her comments. You sure promoted the living shit out of the racist bigot just a few short months ago. What has changed? It wasn't your values.
