Fonda 1, Barr 0
Weeks ago, Roseanne Barr compared a former Obama administration official to an ape. Within the blink of an eye, she was fired from the highly rated resurrected version of her old 1988-1997 show, and the show was canceled.
She later apologized and blamed her remark on having taken the sleeping pill Ambien.
Last week, actor Peter Fonda, who had a movie opening Friday, tweeted, “We should rip Barron Trump [the 12-year-old son of President Donald Trump] from his mother’s arms and put him in a cage with pedophiles and see if mother will will [sic] stand up against the giant a— she is married to.”
A few days later, the actor apologized in a statement through his public relations firm, blaming his words on seeing pictures of children whose parents smuggled them illegally into the United States and who were placed in federal custody while their parents faced court proceedings.
