The View co-host Sunny Hostin might want to invest in a pocket lawyer, as her latest on-air antics – along with the rest of the show’s panel of hateful anti-Trump and anti- Republican commentators – have turned The View into less of a talk show and more of a “whoops, we did it again” spectacle.
The show’s repeated false claims about former Rep. Matt Gaetz and Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth as well as comments made about Trump’s new AG nominee Pam Bondi and former NY Rep. George Santos forced ABC to deploy four “legal notes” on last Friday’s show alone.
It’s ABC’s corporate equivalent of saying, “We don’t actually believe the nonsense our hosts spout” and we’re going to make them announce legal notes so that we don’t get sued.
The allegations, misquotes, and outright fabrications on the show by Sunny Hostin and her fellow circus clowns with their BS ramblings are making damage control a full-time job for ABC’s legal department.
Behar even said, ABC might as well rebrand the show as “Legal Note.”
You’d think after so many of these “legal notes,” the show’s hosts might start fact- checking themselves before blurting out accusations. Nope…They are happy to continue to be the misinformation, disinformation and malformation queens (i.e. liars).
Joy Behar quipped that the legal notes are WHY people tune in. Sorry, Joy – viewers don’t watch for the corrections; but they DO stick around to see how low the credibility bar can go – and to see how insane the women on the show are as they marinate in their full-blown TDS.
Case in point: Goldberg saying, “It seems like unless you have a sexual misconduct allegation, you can’t be in the (Trump) cabinet” to which Joy Behar answered, “That’s true.” And they went on to bring up debunked accusations against Justice Brett Kavanaugh as well. None of that was legal-noted.
While the panel seems intent on peddling half-truths, misinformation, and outright falsehoods, we eagerly anticipate their next creative narrative. Perhaps next week, they’ll claim Bigfoot is secretly in charge of Trump’s cabinet appointments. Frankly, even if that were true, those picks would still outperform Biden’s current roster.
