The odd thing is she was listed for all 5 days, but usually the guest co-hosts are only there three days a week. And then she ended up not being but three days like usual, despite the listing. I wonder if they weren't sure which days she'd be on, since Ana's usually on Monday's and Friday's, but her two days have been Thursday's and Friday's lately. I see Lindsey is only listed for two days. Pretty good guest lineup this week. Link to comment
StaceyNotStacie June 19, 2022 Share June 19, 2022 Im disappointed that they never invited any of the other female DBL hosts to guest host. Lindsey has always been the least used host of the show (and the most boring). Although the way the ladies fuss over pictures of her baby, I’m starting to think that they keep inviting her just to show pictures of her baby. 1 1 Link to comment

Agreed - Samantha Schacher, Tory Shulman and Erica Cobb would all fit in beautifully on The View but none of them are conservatives (at least the latter two). Lindsey is a conservative thus she is a contender for the fifth chair. 2 hours ago, TheGreenKnight said: The odd thing is she was listed for all 5 days, but usually the guest co-hosts are only there three days a week.

I was curious about this comment and The View was pre-empted in my area, so I ended up going to YouTube to see this segment. It did seem as though Sunny didn't get the premise of the original book. She said she read it but felt that it encouraged "color blindness"*, which she disdains and told Kristin that she thought the book was "off the mark" for that reason. She asked if Kristin had "course corrected" with the second book in reaction to what (to Sunny) was a lot of criticism. I think Kristin responded well to this and kept the conversation on the topic of her new book without getting diverted to specific criticisms. I have to say, I think it is presumptuous of anyone to suggest to any author that they needed to "course correct" their message, whatever message that is. It suggests that there is a "right" message to be given and if the author doesn't deliver that, they need to be "corrected". You may not agree with the message, you may dislike the message, the message may be silly, trite, or fringe, but it isn't really up to you to tell them that their message is "wrong". If you feel the message is so bad, misguided, immature, or whatever, then don't buy (or borrow) the book. I'm sure Sunny would be offended if someone told her that she needed to "course correct" the messages of her books because they don't align with the reader's. Readers bring their own experiences to a book, and 100 readers may have 100 different reactions to it, each based on their own lives. The author gets to deliver their message, and the readers can like it or not, but they should not expect the author to change their message to suit the reader, the times, or society. * Kristin said that was not the intent of the book at all. 1 6 Link to comment
After7Only June 21, 2022 Share June 21, 2022 While I agree "correct messaging" feels icky. I took Sunny's criticism was that the book may have an an unintended message of colorblindness that the author did not intend. And she was happy to see it better explained/clarified in the second book. Historically America has sold this melting pot narrative about American culture, when in reality it was more about demanding marginalized communities to assimilate into the dominant culture. (And deemed dominant culture superior) I haven't read the book, so I'm speculating that it is what Sunny is reacting to. I think Kristen did a fine job with the handling the question and moving the conversation forward. Although I had to chuckle at her trying to dismiss Twitter criticism when she is fairly active there. 8 Link to comment

I think Kristen did a fine job with the handling the question and moving the conversation forward. Although I had to chuckle at her trying to dismiss Twitter criticism when she is fairly active there. As you said, the message of colorblindness was not intended by Kristin. It was Sunny's interpretation of the text. Every reader brings something of themselves to every book and it affects the way they react to the book. I think that Sunny gave the impression with her question that Kristin needed to correct the message of her first book and in Sunny's opinion, book #2 met Sunny's expectation. I think that every author is entitled to write whatever message they want, and the expectation that their message needs to conform to Sunny's (or my) world view is arrogant. As an author, I thought Sunny would be more sensitive to this. Without straying too far away from the program, is Sunny's concern "color blindness" or "melting pot"? I think these are different. My recollection may be dated, but color blindness was not considered to be a bad thing for a long time, with the idea being that considerations of race should be ignored in favor of more individual qualifications (ex. auditions for orchestras where the candidates' race, gender, even names are unknown to the judges). As far as the melting pot concept goes, is there any country where the dominant culture doesn't expect some degree of assimilation from smaller groups/communities? As new groups come in, the dominant culture is also changed, and usually for the better. 1 2 Link to comment
Buckeye71034 June 21, 2022 Share June 21, 2022 sorry Sunny but lay off for once. I remember Kristen was actually pretty upset in 2020 when she started getting this criticism out of the blue from people who most definitely didn't read it. even if they did, come on it's a children's book. Kristen is so nice I just didn't like her having to get defensive towards the end of a lovely interview. 2 Link to comment
TheGreenKnight June 21, 2022 Share June 21, 2022 Slow week on The View. Not surprised considering there's less than a month and a half before break, I believe. I bet they're counting the days.

GHScorpiosRule June 22, 2022 Share June 22, 2022 I have to say, for this being the 25th season, Show has done a horrible job of showing the viewers the many hosts, not to mention clips over the past 25 years. I don’t think it would have been crazy to actually show clips of Bawa-you know, the woman who CREATED this show? As for today, just what was Lindsey blathering on about how “most Republicans” were for background checks? Or everything else she was saying? Because reality (bills not passing) is the opposite and contradicts what she was saying. Then after that backandforthbackandforth with Sunny, she back pedals and states they’re “for A” type of or limited background check, which is supposed to be a positive? And as the ladies have said on this show many times and even today, it’s the PEOPLE -majority of them-that are for more extensive background checks. Lindsey can take several seats. I’m going to just watch my Vega$ and 🥰😍🥰swoon🥰😍🥰 over Robert Urich and his SEXAYNESS. Whaaat?? 1 4 Link to comment

GiveMeSpace June 22, 2022 Share June 22, 2022 (edited) I really dislike the Kristin Bell purple people thing for this reason: I grew up in the Deep South where you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a racist. One of the things I have heard nearly all of them say "I am the least racist person you will meet. I don't care if you are purple, green or red, I will treat you the same". Curiously, they never used colors that human beings actually are and NEVER mention the color black or brown. THAT is the main reason I do not like the purple people idea. It reminds me of that stupid FB meme about stick people getting along despite their different political views. You cannot compromise or get aloing with people who want to deny your humanity. I used to like Bell until I saw she was in business with Phil McGraw and she started oversharing about her marriage and not bathing her kids. The Purple People was the straw. Another interesting tidbit about Southern racists-they will unabashedly use the N-word but whisper the word black. Edited June 22, 2022 by GiveMeSpace 1 2 3 6 Link to comment
