So do you think Roseanne Barr has left twitter permanently? See tweet below where she says: “I apologize. I am now leaving Twitter.” A few minutes later she apologizes directly to Valerie Jarrett.

Roseanne states, “I apologize to Valerie Jarrett and to all Americans. I am truly sorry for making a bad joke about her politics and her looks. I should have known better. Forgive me-my joke was in bad taste.”

The Hollywood Life reports:

“It’s unclear if Roseanne means she’s leaving Twitter permanently after her bizarre attack on Valerie, which has since been deleted. “Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj,” Roseanne wrote, using Valerie’s initials.”

The report continues: “The Muslim Brotherhood is a volatile Islamic group. Her vicious tweet was in response to a tweet which accused Valerie of allegedly helping “hide” the misdeeds of former President Barack Obamas administration.”

Do you agree with ABC’s decision to cancel the show? Do you think another outlet will pick the Roseanne show up? Who do you think it will be? Do you think Roseanne Barr will return to Twitter?
