You're mistaken. Here's from the Wikipedia article on the backlash she faced. BTW, this happened in early 2017. We weren't on this forum at that time; Amazon was still up. That's where I first heard about the stupid stunt.
"In May 2017, Griffin subsequently was dropped by Squatty Potty as a marketing spokesperson.[64]
"On May 31, 2017, CNN fired her from its New Year's Eve broadcast with Anderson Cooper.[65] CNN said in a statement prior to announcing her termination, "We found what she did disgusting and offensive. We are pleased to see she has apologized and asked that the photos be taken down."[58] Cooper said, "For the record, I am appalled by the photo shoot Kathy Griffin took part in. It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate."[66]
"All of her remaining scheduled tour dates were canceled by their respective venues,[67] and then U.S. Senator Al Franken from Minnesota disinvited Griffin from a promotional event for his upcoming book.[68] U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto from Nevada announced she is going to donate the $1,000 received from Griffin to charity.[69]
"On October 28, 2017, Griffin uploaded a YouTube video titled "Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story", detailing the backlash she received for the Trump photo controversy.[70] She said she was under a federal investigation by the Justice Department for two months and on the No Fly List during that time. She also said she was put on the Interpol list, the Five Eyes list, and had been detained at every airport during her Laugh Your Head Off World Tour.[71][72]"
