The View: Week of 6/14/2021

[Sharper2002]

Meghan sounds like my teenaged self when I’d argue with my mom. Except…I’m 37 and grew out of that 20 years ago.

Catch up, MeAgain!

Ugh, and Whoopi had to apologize while Meghan mutters her apology. There’s no justice in the world…

Edited June 17, 2021 by Sharper2002

[tableau vivant]

Whoopi:  "Well, then, you can be like you always are..."

McCain: "And you can be like you always are..."

Advertisers are loving this ! This is what they invested in...

[BuckeyeLou]

Oh Man: now Whoopi apologizes for being Rude!  And Megan, sourly, apologizes too...I bet the Producers made them do that!

[tableau vivant]

Sorry Megaphone and Whoopie - apologies don't cut it. The milk is already spilled, and we know how you two truly feel about each other.

Hopefully, finally, Megun’s days are numbered.  Not sure you want to mess with Whoppie😂.

Sorry, Whoopie!

[2JEWELL]

Well said Sunny.  It’s something to talk about, but not to lose your shit over.  Big Megs is honestly not happy unless she’s angry.  I’m starting to feel bad that we all enjoy the slow moving train wreck so much.  Can’t the people around her see how miserable she is?

[Haleth]

Well there’s a first. I’ve never heard anyone on this show apologize for getting into an argument. You know neither one means it. 

[TheGreenKnight]

Seen this a million times over. How can anyone find this stuff exciting knowing nothing ever happens because the princess is protected by the network from the other ladies? Especially ironic considering the topic was about the press holding the powerful accountable, but the co-hosts aren’t even allowed to hold McCain accountable on their own show. And McCain’s opinion was of course the opposite of how she expects herself to be treated; she wants everyone on this show to be held in a bind so as not to question anything she says.

[tableau vivant]

Looks like Victoria's Secret won't be advertising on ABC anymore. 

 

[Redcookie]

And now she’s pouting…..like I did when I was 8 and didn’t get my way. But I have to admit, I watch for the host drama and when she isn’t on there ain’t none. 

[cslustig]

The past few days have been pretty boring, but we finally got a spicy fight today! Read our recap here: https://www.primetimer.com/theview/meghan-mccain-whoopi-goldberg-fight

[HerkyJerky]

People need to interrupt MeAgain and see how she likes it!
Btw, she misused the word “levity” AGAIN!

[Pearson80]

Megan is just so nasty for no reason.  Whoopie was just stating her opinion and she had to interrupt her and get nasty for giving an opinion.  As always she gets away with her nonsense because the princess of Arizona must be protected no matter what.  In a way, I am happy that she got into it with Whoopie since Whoopie was the one that advocated for her to get on the show.

Just from reading the recap it seems like it didn't take much for Whoopi to go off on Meghan. Maybe something happened before the show.

I think Meghan has long worn out her welcome with her cohosts and they would like to see her leave as much, if not more, as we do.

Can she not go back to Fox News or go somewhere with her “tribe”? At this point, it feels like she’s picking fights just to see how far she can go. 

Having Ana on earlier this week was such a breath of fresh air. The women didn’t always agree, but everyone was able to get their point across. Plus, Ana doesn’t pout when someone objects to something she says.

Maybe, but Whoopi only got a couple words in before Meghan interrupted and started arguing. Whoopi kept asking to finish but Meg would just.not.shut.up. Meg had had her say at length but could not shut up long enough for Whoopi to say her view.

I bet she regrets it every single day!! The Princess has truly become Whoopi's cross to bear.

But, that's not what happened.  they have a short time (very short, it seemed like 20 commercials in a row)  and Meghan already had her say.  Whoopi wanted to express her opinion, and Meghan interrupted.  Whoopi politely but firmly asked her "let me finish."  and Meghan kept on interrupting.  Meghan has interrupted Whoopi before, and I think Whoopi has had enough of her crap.  

Interesting to me  is that the whole thing started because of MEghan saying she didn't care if Biden apologized for snapping at a reporter.  Yeah, well, Meghan, I don't care that YOU apologized!

and she didn't really apologize.  she said the words as ordered, but it was quite clear she didn't mean it.  this should get her gone, but it won't, unfortunately

[After7Only]

MM had to be rude and interrupt Whoopi….just to say “I don’t care if he apologized”….   I mean she could have waited until Whoopi had finished her point to say that..lol…it really didn’t change the point Whoopi was trying to make..

Then the ladies giggling and joking during the Victoria’s Secret discussion…..except MM who just sat their dour faced….with her eyes constantly darting to the side…lol

Was so hoping they would have included MM in the interview with Ziwe, but wasn’t surprised she wasn’t.

That certain facial expression - she always looks as if she's smelled stinky fish. It's especially noticeable when everyone else is smiling and laughing.

They must be trying to mitigate a hostile work environment. It is sounding TO ME like letters have been written, warnings bandied about and a case being made for possible changes.

[Teriacky]

Go Whoopi!! 
Meghan, shut the hell up!

I wouldn't put it past Meghan to say she is the victim of a hostile work environment.  You know because she is the only conservative in the media.

Just saw that part. She just needs to GO AWAY!! She also missed the point that Kaitlin's comment was quoting Biden incorrectly, which is why he was ticked off. She is such a humorless, unhappy, nasty person.

I think that is exactly what she will do.  The View persecuted the only conservative voice so SEE, media is liberal!  No, she is a one note wonder with a very average, if not a little low, IQ.  Plus she doesn't play well with others.

[KittyQ]

Sheesh, Whoopi couldn't even complete her apology before Meghan interrupted with her "apology". Way to show that you don't really get why you are apologizing, Meghan!

You forget, she's also the only "plus-sized woman who can't buy a decent bra" in the media.

Exactly!   Biden wasn't lashing out randomly at the media.  He was upset that his words were taken out of context in the form of a question - "Why are you so confident that Putin will change?"   the question was posed in order to provoke him.  

[Kemper]

Sorry, but Meghan and these dust-ups are not fun to watch, at least for me;  I know that is what drives ratings.  (But I do love reading about it!)  The only one who seems to have any power on this show is Meghan; no matter what she does, the powers-that-be will not get rid of her and she knows that. 

Only a show that features opinionated women would have a low-class, trashy, ignorant, poorly dressed and coifed, to-the-manor-born (in her mind) tacky wanna-be-princess who is living off of her family name on and think they have scored a coup.  

There is something wrong with Meghan's wiring; she is always angry.  This from a young woman who would seem to have it all....husband, baby, great job, etc.

Added the last paragraph.

[ForumLou]

Heheeeeeee!  Yeasssss Whoopi kick her ass!!!  Finally!  No no no no no do NOT apologize!  That's because she's a professional.  You know damn well that she would NOT have grumbled a return apology.  That's because she's NOT a professional, she's a woman of the wild west yeehaw!  I was seriously hoping she would be gone when we got back from break.  Sigh. No such luck.  But later i think she did.  Hence Joy's ending comment ....'we show up'....HAH!  She's loving this haha.  Maybe she'll call in sick tomorrow not over her bug.  And she's making everyone else sick too! Heh lol

I wonder if their HR dept has regular performance reviews where they could say well 40 complaints this month, and next it was up to 60.  Then they usually give one more month to turn it around and if not, you know what happens.  NOTHING!  j/k. You get shit canned!  If only.....

[Miss Slay]

Privilege at its finest. Megan is rude for several years and never has to apologize. EGOT Whoopi Goldberg is rude once and has to immediately apologize...to Megan.

The correct phrasing is “You’re in DANGER, girl.” (tm Ghost.) 😉

[Gemma Violet]

I was disappointed that Whoopi had to "flatter" Megan after the dust up---a segment or two later, Whoopi said something like, "As Megan said...," like she agreed with Meghan.  I would have totally ignored her for the rest of the show.    

[RealHousewife]

Whoopi should have told Meghan to kiss her ass.

AHEM.

It's "Molly? You in DANGER, girl." No contraction!

[Cementhead]

I guess the paycheck makes it worthwhile for Whoopi and the others to continuously bow down to Meghan because their bosses make them.  Paycheck over dignity at this point, imo.

Yes.  I knew tptb would make an apology happen.  But Whoopi’s a professional and handled it with aplomb.  Missy, the opposite.

Whoopi and I are about the same age.    At this age I am finally attempting to put the wise words of Les Brown to work for me. ‘Don’t sweat the small stuff.  And it’s all small stuff.’    Missy and her attitude fit in a teensy tiny corner of the small stuff box.

Same could be said about the Biden apology 🤷🏻‍♀️.

I was watching live yesterday as Biden confronted Kaitlyn Collins and I was taken aback by his raised finger, his tone, and his "you're in the wrong field," but I knew right away that The View ladies would excuse it. Whoopi is glad he apologized. Joy excused him by saying "he's old, he gets testy." Ummm..Trump is old too, Joy.

I like what Sunny said about the situation.

You know that's true.  I'm sure Whoopi did it as a favor to Sen McCain.  But Whoopi that's done now.  Over and over and over done! You held the favor and you don't have to hold on to it the rest of your life.  Be done.  Cut the slack bait.

I think Whoopie is done with her but Nutmeg is too dumb to realize this though.  Whoopie will tolerate her when she has to do so in a professional setting but outside of work will be a different matter altogether.  Whoopie has been very patient with her to a fault, other ladies that she did not like did not get the same treatment.  

[Cozytea]

There is that grace The princess  asked for on Twitter.  Maybe Meghan dosen't actually know what the word grace means?🤷🏾‍♀️

[bannana]

Other than just being childish, what did MeAgain mean when she retorted to Whoopi: You can be how you always are.

Because Whoopi said that to MeAgain in reply to her interrupting her repeatedly, and not letting her finish her viewpoint. MeAgain, talking over Whoopi, said twice she didn't care that Biden apologized, Whoopi, frustrated, tried to go to break, but then said, I don't care that you don't care, and MeAgain, like a spoiled brat whined, I don't care that you don't care, rolled her eyes and looked like she might cry. Whoopi said: Well, then good, MeAgain, then you can be how you always are.

Everyone knows what Whoopi meant by that. But MeAgain's childish comeback didn't really make sense. How does she think Whoopi always is? 

Can you imagine any of the other co-hosts talking repeatedly over Whoopi when she finally gets to make her point? They might accidentally talk over but they stop when they realize she is speaking. None of them would do what MeAgain did. And there is no way Whoopi should have apologized. She wasn't the one being rude.

[Primal Slayer]

Meghan continues to be a glorified child. She had her chance to talk, give her opinion but of course she never allows anyone else to give theirs after her. She has to continue to blab on. I was so glad that Whoopi went off on her. Meghan looked ridiculous with her comeback, so much for Whoopi being the one she respects the most.

I know Megan was on Fox years ago but I remember reading somewhere she was "fat shamed" off the network during the Roger Ailes era.  Also, there was a female host she didn't get a long with on Fox, can't recall who. Maybe Gretchen Carlson?

I think it was Laura Ingraham, the shut up and dribble lady. 

[Bronzedog]

Meghan basically said to Whoopie the same thing we said when I was a kid 600 years ago when we had absolutely no retort- “I know you are but what am I?”
