What was to like in the first place? Seriously.

She's poster child for everything that's wrong with Hollywood.

She and her handlers have the worst possible timing, which is odd for a comedian to not possess.

She was in a Bud Light commercial that reminded people about the election that most people couldn't stand to hear about. As a result, they fired her and continue to lose 5% of the market.
Anarchist couldn't of picked a better outcome--rich, capitalist beer company spends a fortune only to get people to drink less beer.

Now, THAT'S funny.

She is very bigoted and anti-Trump. Hollywood of course ate all of that up, and loved the fact that she was the poster child for girls who aren't stick-thin. While I agree that is a problem, Amy isn't exactly a positive role model for them.

And for the media endlessly flaunt her as some type of "sex symbol" was just laughable. It wasn't her looks, it was her openness about what she does in bed that people ate up.

This is why Joan Rivers is and was such a legend. She actually had a brain and was not beholden to one side.

Typical comedienne career arch. They start out well by just doing their job, which is to entertain and be funny. Then comes the "Now I have a platform" and must use my power, losing focus and turning off half their audience. Then, if they survive, they end up with a small niche audience and irrelevance.

She's edging close to irrelevance.
