NBC’s Megyn Kelly tore into TBS comedian Samantha Bee for calling Ivanka Trump a “feckless c**t,” saying the comments were “disgusting.”
“How is this acceptable?” Kelly asked. “And how are we expected to take any of these publications seriously if they gleefully repost something like this at the same time they (rightfully) condemn @therealroseanne? You know the saying Love is Love? Well Hate is Hate.

“You know, Ivanka, that’s a beautiful photo of you and your child,” Bee said during a Wednesday monologue, “But let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad’s immigration practices, you feckless c**t!” RELATED: (TBS’s Samantha Bee Calls Ivanka Trump ‘Feckless C**t’)
The monologue comes on the heels of ABC’s cancellation of its top show “Roseanne” after Barr, the show’s main character, tweeted a racist remark about an Obama staffer. (RELATED: Where Was The Apology For Trump? — Sarah Sanders’ Responds To Roseanne Question)
Bee is scheduled to receive an Emmy Thursday as one of seven shows that have “leveraged the dynamic power of television to inspire social change.”
