Roseanne Barr Sparks Outrage with Holocaust Denial Comments

TL;DR Summary
Comedian Roseanne Barr, whose comeback show was canceled in 2018 due to racist tweets, has made alarming comments on a podcast, stating that "nobody died in the Holocaust" and suggesting that six million Jews should die. It is unclear whether she genuinely believes the Holocaust didn't happen or if she was making an abhorrent comment about online speech. Barr has previously blamed her cancellation on "intellectual witch-burning" and accused her former co-star Sara Gilbert of canceling the show. Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt condemned Barr's comments, and comedian Theo Von, who interviewed her, claimed her remarks were sarcastic.
