During his interview with Sharon Osbourne, Bill Maher also went out of his way to be disrespectful — not only to Meghan, who he called "a girl," but also to the entire British royal family. He called Queen Elizabeth "an old bag," and noted that The Firm was generally "cold to everyone" (via USA Today). 

But if Osbourne thought that her inappropriately-timed offensive would win her redemption or a pardon from Twitter, she was categorically wrong. "Why do old farts interfere with what the younger generation is up to – bearing in mind the inordinate mess they've left them?" asked one Osbourne's critics via tweet. "Sharon Osbourne is no victim. She can cry all she wants but she is a racist. Period," tweeted another critic. "Is Bill Maher's show the Red Table Talk for racists?" suggested a third after listening to her interview (via Twitter). A fourth had a hard time processing Osbourne's contradictions. "It's so weird to me when documented racists go on a press tour to prove how racist they aren't" they tweeted. "But I have to say Sharon Osbourne calling Harry the definition of white privilege is both true and incredible projection and I'm just flabbergasted at this woman's caucasity."
