The View has not had a conservative host since Meghan McCain left last year. However, it looks like Alyssa Farah Griffin will be filling her seat.
According to Variety, the former Trump White House director of strategic communications is in final talks to join the show.
After watching her above appearance on the talk show, I can tell she is going to be another McCain. It is good for ratings because viewers want to see the tension. But is it worth it? We have enough angry and divided people in this country is. Do we really need another source for the anger?
I don’t understand why they don’t give Ana Navarro the job. They get along and have reasonable conversations. Why mess with it?
Before Joy Behar was complaining about politics on The View, she was kvetching about people thinking she was Jewish on Women on the Night 2. How funny was the 45-year-old doing stand up in 1988?
Before Joy Behar was babysitting her co-hosts on The View, she was a nanny on Baby Boom. She looks the same now as she did when 46 in that 1988 episode.
Joy Behar has been with The View for most of its 25 years. Today, the host did something she has never done before. No, she was not quiet for the whole episode.
So what was it? She was seeing red. But wait, she was always seeing red. Yes, but today she was looking down at her pants and saw red and not black. In other words, it was the first time she didn’t wear black slacks on the show.
I wonder what omen she brought onto the show for doing this? I mean, a change like that is huge. Does that mean they will get someone even worse than Meghan McCain and Elisabeth Hasslebeck combined to co-host next season? We will find out soon enough.
LeVar Burton was on The View today, and Joy Behar asked the host of Reading Rainbow what he thinks about states banning books. He looked her dead in the eyes and said, “Bullshit!”
While that is not a word he could’ve said on his show Reading Rainbow, it is in the spirit of the series. Books are meant to tell a story whether we like what it has to say or not.
We can’t erase the feeling of that period in history, even if we wanted to. So only way to learn from our mistakes is to know what they are.
