I really do not like too much about "The View." But, Joy Behar being totally nasty to several guests is something that should have been addressed long ago, & that "Rude (Very Rude) Woman" should have been sent "Bye - Bye." And, I truly do not think I am the only Person who thinks so.
These women are truly deranged. They research nothing, slant everything, and hate non-stop Trump. Maybe if they’d tried to be honest about Biden and the joke of an administration he had, people might take them a little more seriously. As it is they are a joke and should be cancelled.
I tried to actually watch a show once and thought I’d throw up after 5 minutes. Never again. Show is a waste of airtime.
The View is very partisan, overly emotional and ill informed. But the sponsor still advertise somehow.
I stopped watching The View a decade ago also.
One does stumble across their crazy takes from the professional hate watchers. Some classics are Sunny blaming a solar eclipse on climate change. Or Whoopi crying poor and needing the work.
Her reported net worth is from 20 to 30 million. They remind me of characters out of a Hunger Game movie. So elite and out of touch.
But God Bless these mouth pieces for the lunatic left.
These folks main audience is boomer. And more specifically the vaxxed and old. There show will sunset soon.
I love the View, since we've had a change in administration, i agree that they are more liberal, FOR VERY OBVIOU REASONS.!.. But regarding non administration issues, you find a difference of opinions, which i enjoy. The panel makeup includes 2 Republicans, 3 Democrats 1 independent.
My only complaint is the need of ABC and Disney to constantly promote shows, people, books etc. I usually turn off The View after the political discussions have ended.
I have a comment regarding the MLK Monday show. I was hired by a company in the 70's because of Affirmative Action. YEA When this company hired me said right to my face. "They had to hire a woman or a black person" I was the lesser choice of the 2 legal options!!
I have never watched the View other than in comments by other stations airing clips of these old bitties chewing the fat. Aside from their TDS, they wouldn't have a show. The size of their audience (struggling to stay about 1.5 million-2 million most weeks) says alot about how bad they are. They are #5 at CBS and have 1/3 less audience then "America's Funniest Home Videos"...pretty much sums up their importance on the world stage in spite of their belief they know best for EVERYONE.
Jenna you are not doing well :)
The VIEW should be on Saturday Nights and replace the SNL, because it's the biggest joke in all of TV. Those idiots on that show do nothing but spew lies and hatred and talk out of both sides of their mouths. Whoopi embarrasses herself every time she opens her mouth. She doesn't even bother to do any research on anything she talks about, but rather repeats the rhetoric she hears and believes it be truth. Stupid woman in reality, but smart enough to keep taking her viewers money. She's rich as hell, so touch'e.
The View has been reprimanded to many times. Emergence meeting had been called by producers, especially Whoppie.who had to take a "vacation" for her name calling. Sonny has been warned about her interruptions toward guest. Joy needs to be retired was her no-nonsense boring jokes. Those 3 ladies should be charged with treason!!! They rarely produce facts before they open their spewing hate for anyone who disagrees with them. And try to make guess look stupid. except Karoline Leavitt, she let them hold one. Woopie got spanked!!! Disgraceful ladies and ABC should cancel that one-sided show.
Anyone who tells the truth is labeled a “radical leftist.“ The people in this forum should try watching PBS news but that just might strain their brains.
That's hilarious, and definitely a clear 'view' of your struggles. But, I feel like, if you wanted to, you could maybe find some actual truth out there. But, you need to stop running back to your abusers. Aka the ones who told you how awesome old uncle Joe was, up to, and after, the disastrous debate. Then they had to admit it. Most pretended like they were surprised. They weren't. But, running around thinking you can insult the intelligence of the 350 million people who would never watch 'The View' is something an intelligent person just doesn't do.
Jenna - it’s sad you are so uninformed.
I have never met anyone that watches the VIEW, at least none admits it. I must wonder what kind of people want to watch hateful hosts.
I would like to introduce you to Jenna at some point.
She's our house Yenta thay laps the filth lactating from the mouths of these women. They love it when they pat each other on the back in agreement.
Well I am 77, been a lifetime Republican until 2016 when a 12 year old ran for office, unfortunately he won.I watch the View, I watch Rachel Maddow! I listen to Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Lincoln Project, Republicans against the Felon. I do not listen to the Entertainment Channel that illegally poses a News Channel. lincolnproject.us FELON47 will throw all of you under the bus eventually. It's what he does.
Awe. You sound like one of those New York state republicans... lol. The ones who are so easy to convince to vote Democrat that you have probably really been a RINO since Reagan.
Do you have age related cognitive impairment? It seems to be a Democrat thing that you might relate to.
I have not watched ABC for probably over 10 years because of shows like this. The exception might have been a sporting event. The only time I see excerpts from The View is on podcasts that are making fun of the show. I have not seen much content worth watching. I don't know how the legacy media stays on the air. If pharmaceuticals are no longer allowed to be advertised, it looks like they need to change directions or be phased out.
