Samantha Bee facing heat for dogging on Ivanka Trump. |
Enter TBS and Samantha Bee.
Full Frontal with Samantha Bee is executive produced by her, Jason Jones and Jon Stewart. The series is a hit and it has been extremely critical of Donald J. Trump, America's worst human pile of shit.
Yeah, we are more divided than ever. Trump being in office has divided this country further.
Now that word, CUNT.
The right and the left attacked Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton. |
Bee used it on a comedy skit where she called the first daughter a feckless count. It was a strong backlash. Many are calling for TBS to drop her. They feel that Barr's remarks about Valerie Jarrett should equal the remarks made by Bee.
Bee quickly apologized.
I would like to sincerely apologize to Ivanka Trump and to my viewers for using an expletive on my show to describe her last night. It was inappropriate and inexcusable. I crossed a line, and I deeply regret it.— Samantha Bee (@iamsambee) May 31, 2018
Wondering how long will TBS keep her on the air? I mean she said far less than Roseanne Barr. The inept leader himself said far worse things about people and never apologized for it.
Barr called Black people, apes. That's extremely offensive. Barr has called people cunts. Yeah, that's offensive.
Longtime entertainer Sally Field came to Bee's defense but had a warning.
I like Samantha Bee a lot, but she is flat wrong to call Ivanka a cunt.— Sally Field (@sally_field) May 31, 2018
Cunts are powerful, beautiful, nurturing and honest.
I love Samantha Bee. She is an amazing comedian. But if the heat keeps up on her, she may find Comedy Central and HBO as the saviors.
Weigh in on this controversy.
