'A large part of it is antisemitism': Roseanne Barr claims ABC fired her because she is Jewish and supports Israel
Roseanne Barr has come up with yet another reason to compensate for her firing from ABC following the controversial tweet that she had posted against the former US President's former adviser, Valerie Jarrett. However, this time the former 'Roseanne' actress took refuge in being a minor by claiming that she was fired solely on the basis of antisemitism. This is yet again one of the countless efforts that Barr had made in order to cover up for the tweet that addressed the former adviser as "Muslim Brotherhood & Planet of the Apes had a baby=vj."
In an interview with The Jerusalem Post, she claimed that the executives at ABC were up against her for the only reason that she is a Jew and supports Israel. "What I said was mischaracterized purposely and repeatedly, so they didn't even know what I meant, but they wanted to shape it and they did - they said it was something racial when it was actually something political," she said. "And I have never in my life done anything racist, and I think my career proves that. And they did it so quickly - to fire and label and slander my name. I think it had a lot to do with identifying with Israel."
