The Grammy-winning comedian appeared at South By Southwest this week to premiere her new stand-up film, “Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story,” which she financed herself because she said she can’t find any allies in the entertainment industry.
Ms. Griffin became a public pariah in 2017 when she was photographed holding a fake severed head depicting the president. The comedian was widely condemned and lost sponsors, hosting gigs and tour dates over the stunt. She said she was investigated for months by the Department of Justice and placed on the federal no-fly list during that time.
More whining here

There is a difference between being ugly and being blacklisted.
That would be Mr. Griffin not Ms. Griffin. That's a damn man
Poor Kathy. Poor poor Kathy :(
That warms my heart.
It was a stupid, stupid thing to do. It's hard to find sympathy.
Stupid stunts produce stupid prizes!
She got exactly what she earned!
She should have stuck with performing - politics simply showed her stupid side!
Pay to play
She should put on Blackface and do the moonwalk, she will be okay, it was fine for Gov. Coonman Northam.
She miserably overestimated her support and even more miserably overestimated her talent.
hold on...let me get a Kleenex
She's just not funny anymore, just pathetic.
She is a miserable Treasonous pos.
Does she really think this Trump supporting white women cares what she says or thinks.
All great comments. Not much to add, except she never was funny 11:27. I am pleased they have blackballed her, but very surprised. Maybe the president could get her a job in a morgue doing autopsies.
Don't ever forget her lambasting Christians accepting awards giving glory to God. She used the words "suck it" in her blasphemy.
Mr Bob
Poor (((Kathy))).
Irony can be clever. Mean and stupid is not. She'd have a better leg to stand only if she'd caught Harvey Weinsteins attention but she had little to barter with.
They don't blacklist liberals in Hollywood so your lying.
well deserved
Northam held a celebration party this morning.He's claiming victory,whatever that means.
She was never funny. Gross would best describe her performances. Trump didn't do a thing to her career she did. Should go away and try to enjoy the rest of her life. Complaining makes it worse.
She chose the path to walk on.
Tough bed you made for yourself, ain't it b**ch?
She is a dried up old bag that isn't funny anymore. She did it to herself/himself. lol
Heard she was being hired by Jake Day for get this " city morale official".
She should remain blackballed and should find another line of work no one misses her. I never did think her so called brand of humor was funny just liked the attention it gave her.
There's an important life-lesson here that seems to get lost on the current generation, and it's mostly due to social media - especially anonymous social media.
That lesson is that words and actions DO have consequences!
This generation is so very much used to the fact that they can badmouth - bully, actually - anyone ON-LINE with no consequence.
Then suddenly they are face-to-face one-on-one and cannot understand why there is such an uproar.
That Beto guy is finding out that fact right now. "Words have consequences!"
Kathy Griffin is holding up a severed head of a sitting President and wondering why everyone is upset.
Sad situation.
New Years Eve was blissful without her.
It's not like she does her own promotional work. She has a manager, a road manager and other staff. Too bad that she's had to fire some and give her manager an almost insurmountable task to get her earning money again.
She's still blaming it on Trump and Trump supporters, by the way, who evidently haven't the bizarre sense of humor and "edgy social commentary" that she does.
That's about the only thing she can say that makes me happy.
