AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson praised the cancellation of the popular ABC sitcom Roseanne after its star posted a racist-filled Twitter rant on Tuesday.
Stephenson was asked about the controversy Wednesday during an interview at Recode's Code Conference. AT&T is in the midst of trying to buy Time Warner, one of the biggest media companies, which owns cable channels such as HBO and Turner Broadcasting. Stephenson said he thinks ABC parent company Disney did the right thing in severing ties with Roseanne Barr.
