Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s upset with her “The View” co-hosts over political showdown
Washington, Sept 30 : Elisabeth Hasselbeck is reportedly very upset with her co-hosts on the talk show ‘The View’, Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar, over the US presidential election.
A long-time staff member of the show is said to have revealed that The View creator Barbara Walters has called a “cooling off” meeting between the conservative Hasselbeck and the more liberal Goldberg and Behar.
This is not the first time that Hasselbeck has faced a political showdown with her co-host, but according to insiders, it was not as bad as the disagreement that had taken place with Rosie O''Donnell.
“It’s not as bad as during the Rosie (O’Donnell) era,” Fox News quoted a long-time staff member of the show as telling the Chicago Sun-Times.
In July, Hasselbeck was in tears after a discussion about the use of the n-word, in which Goldberg told her the two “don’t live in the same world”.
O''Donnell had, earlier this month, said that her former co-host Hasselbeck and Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin were “identical cousins ... women who hunt in high heels”. (ANI)
