[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 164014, member: 57984"] Roseanne claims she didn't know Valerie Jarrett was black -- which may very well be true. She had issues with Plame's Iran policy. John Goodman did defend her by saying he never knew her to express any racism. And while Tom Arnold jumped on the bandwagon and claimed Roseanne was always comparing black people to monkeys, he's also the only one of her four husbands she doesn't maintain a friendly relationship with (she calls him a sociopath). And certainly her show was racially sensitive, and not just in a paint-by-numbers way. Roseanne herself also semi-defended the cast by saying that their silence, or go-along-to-get-along complicity, was due to fear of being fired if they defended her. Funny, I was just watching yesterday Joe Rogan's interview with her from a few months ago: [MEDIA=youtube]MTAMaAaOl6U[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]cwBegQ8rPQc[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=youtube]Cob1DAEiQsg[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
