TBS: Samantha Bee's Ivanka Comment 'Vile, Inappropriate'

TBS did not indicate it would punish late-night host Samantha Bee for her use of a vulgar and derogatory word to describe White House senior adviser Ivanka Trump, the daughter of President Donald Trump.

The network told The Hill it had nothing further to add from a statement it released about Bee, who used the crude word on her "Full Frontal" show Wednesday night. She apologized Thursday.

TBS reacted to Bee's remark with a brief statement posted to its Twitter account, calling the word she used "vile and inappropriate."

Coincidentally, Bee and her show are scheduled to be recognized at Thursday night's Television Academy Honors for advancing social change.

Bee's comment occurred the day after ABC canceled Roseanne Barr's show after she made a racist comment about former White House adviser Valerie Jarrett on Twitter.
