The quest for accountability has extended to verbal injustices and attacks as well -- enter Roseanne Barr.
Barr, star of this year's hit reboot of the '90's sitcom "Roseanne," was fired this week following her racist tweet about former Barack Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett -- and took the #1 rated show with her.
Although Disney-ABC executives were swift in canceling the show, sympathy for the estimated $100 million in lost 2-year ad revenue is tempered by their decision to invest in the boisterous comedian to begin with --given her long and documented history, on air and online, of bigotry and racism.

It is a worthy point for checking the progress of other industries as well on their efforts to correct personal and racial injustice.
On Tuesday, Starbucks closed 8,000 stores nationwide to conduct racial bias training for employees.
Last December a group of 54 female Democratic Congress members signed a letter to the chair of the House Oversight Committee, asking for an investigation into the multiple allegations of sexual assault and harassment against President Trump.
Some industries are still behind.
