In the US, closed the popular TV series because of the racist statements of the actress

The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) canceled a Rosanna Barr television show after it made racist comments about Valerie Jarrett, an African American who worked at the White House during the presidency of Barack Obama and was his adviser.

Barr (she herself is white) wrote on Tuesday Twitterthat Jarrett is a creature (grouping) of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes.

Barr later apologized to Twitter for the “bad joke” about Valerie Jarrett.

Before Barr’s tweet was removed, it sounded like this: “The Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes have a child = VJ (Valerie Jarrett)”.

The offensive statement of Barr caused a sharp reaction and in particular - the abolition of a new version of her show by ABC.

"Rosanna's statement to Twitter disgusting, senseless and incompatible with our values, and we decided to cancel her show, ”said ABC entertainment director Channing.

In the television show, which represents the new version of the 1988-97 show, Barr created an image of President Trump’s supporter.

Barr herself is also a staunch supporter of Trump who, two months ago, praised her for her new show and praised her high rating.

“Look at her ratings! - He said, speaking in Ohio. “More 18 million people.”

“This is about us,” the president added. - This is not made up, this is not an invention of fake news. So it was great."
