Kurtz: ABC Knew What They Were Getting with Roseanne, She Has Years and Years of Conspiracy Theories

‘So they took a gamble here’

RUSH EXCERPT:
KURTZ: "She had to be prodded into an apology. But ABC deserves credit for bringing back the Roseanne show tailoring it to the people that like the president and us a cultural and sensational smash. But ABC executives knew what they were getting with Roseanne Barr. She has years and years of spewing conspiracy theories and unproven charges. So they took a gamble here that she could create a hit show and she did and maybe she would behave herself, and she did not. Is the show not only going away but the hundreds of people losing their jobs as well."
