What exactly did Rosseane Barr say that was racist? And should people be fired over personal tweets?
Bill Maher called Trump an orange orangutan sould he be fired?

Comparing any racial group to apes is racist. I don't know about firing, but there always has been and always will be, consequences for words and actions.

It’s not libel if it’s true. But seriously, folks, Maher was tweaking the nose of an individual, satirically, as a counteraccusation to Trump’s accusations about Obama’s BC. Barr was after Jarrett’s ethnicity.

Calling Trump an orangutan is in no way comparable to equating an African American with an ape. That's simply a fact of American cultural history. I'm frankly sick of hearing from people who are ignorant of that, or who are pretending to be ignorant.

She went too far on Jarrett. She was correct in what she said of Soros though.

She said something like "muslim brotherhood and planet of the apes had a baby=VJ" (meaning Valerie Jarret) Don't you know it's only those on the right that screw up that get fired..
