<p class="mol-para-with-font">Sitcom star Roseanne Barr&#8217;s social media meltdown appeared to take a turn for the worse as she lashed out at everyone in pen&#8217;s distance, a day after she lost her prized show on ABC.<br />
She appeared to retract the &#8216;garbled apology&#8217; of a few hours earlier, swinging from blaming drug induced discombobulation to attacking the network for not sticking with her, before blasting her two co-stars for speaking out against her and is backing supporters who blame a liberal witch-hunt for her show&#8217;s cancellation.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">In a return to Twitter, hours after claiming she was quitting the social media platform for good when her eponymous hit show was cancelled, Barr flipped from apologizing for her &#8216;bad joke&#8217; about Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett to railing against her critics.</p>
<h6 class="mol-para-with-font"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-293942" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Rosanne-Barr-tweet-blaming-Ambien-1.png.jpg" alt="Rosanne Barr tweet blaming Ambien 1.png" width="962" height="517" /> <strong>Sorry or Not?: Barr flipped and went after those who criticized her actions and words like a lightswitch</strong></h6>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">Barr thundered after Michael Fishman, who played D.J. Conner on the show.<br />
Fishman who started working with Barr when he was just six, earlier released a statement criticizing Barr&#8217;s racist tweet saying Jarrett looks like the lovechild of the &#8216;Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes&#8217;.</p>
<h6 class="mol-para-with-font"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-293935" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Michael-Fischer-tweete1.jpg" alt="Michael Fischer tweete1.jpg" width="962" height="543" /><strong>Fishman was appalled by the comments posted by his TV mom</strong></h6>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;I condemn these statements vehemently,&#8217; wrote Fishman, who is the father of a black daughter in the reboot.<br />
&#8216;They are reprehensible and intolerable, contradicting my beliefs and outlook on life and society. I have always lived and taught my children to be inclusive. I believe our show strived to embrace different backgrounds and opinions, through open dialogue.&#8217;</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">But Fishman was not the only original cast member to take a stand, with Sara Gilbert, who played Roseanne&#8217;s daughter Darlene, also releasing a statement that very much echoed the one released shortly after by ABC cancelling the show.<br />
&#8216;Roseanne’s recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show. I am disappointed in her actions to say the least,&#8217; wrote Gilbert, who was a producer on the reboot and largely responsible for reuniting the cast.<img class="alignnone wp-image-293940" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Sarah-Gilbert-tweets-1.jpg" alt="Sarah Gilbert tweets 1.jpg" width="604" height="261" /><br />

<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;This is incredibly sad and difficult for all of us, as we’ve created a show that we believe in, are proud of, and that audiences love— one that is separate and apart from the opinions and words of one cast member.&#8217;<br />
&#8216;Wow! unreal,&#8217; wrote Barr, who had confessed in earlier interviews to the difficult job Gilbert had of trying to rein in her impulse to tweet offensive comments.<br />
However, she later followed up, tweeting: &#8216;No, I understand her position and why she said what she said. i forgive her. It just shocked me a bit, but I indeed f***ed up.&#8217;<br />
She reiterated this soon after when a follower criticized Gilbert, saying: &#8216;She&#8217;s distancing herself from me and my tweet-she has to.&#8217;</p>
