Roseanne Barr will sit down with Fox News’ Sean Hannity for her first television appearance since being fired from ABC.
The Hill reports Hannity announced the interview on-air Tuesday. It will air Thursday night, with additional portions on Hannity’s show the following night.
“During the live interview, [Barr] will react to reports about the tweet that got her fired along with discussion of President Donald Trump,” according to a statement from Fox News.
Barr’s top-rated show, the reboot of 1990s sitcom “Roseanne,” was canceled earlier this year after Barr made a racist comment on Twitter about Obama aide Valerie Jarrett.
Barr tweeted that the ex-White House adviser was the child of the Islamist organization Muslim Brotherhood and the movie “Planet of the Apes."
The comedian, who is a supporter of President Trump in real life and on the sitcom, said earlier this month that she would not appear for a television interview because it was “too stressful” following the massive wave of backlash to her tweet.
ABC announced Tuesday that its spin-off, “The Conners,” which will not feature Barr, will premiere on Oct. 16.
