Is “The View” Really an “Important Political Show,” or a Televised Radical Leftist Agenda

(Mar. 15, 2025) — For years now The View has been a rather successful show on ABC, why, I’m not sure as I fail to see the appeal.  The original idea, via the show’s creator, Barbara Walters, was for a panel of women to discuss the issues of the day, great idea in concept.  The problem is that The View was always a little bit slanted to the left, but if you run the show, you can do as you please, provided the show generates a healthy viewership, which in turn pulls in the big ad money.

The View won awards for the show, and was lavished with praise for how great it was by such leftist bastions as: Associated Press, Entertainment Weekly, and Slate, among others.  The New York Times in 2019 raved about the show calling it, “the most important political TV show in America.”  (Source)

During 2014-2015 The View had lost viewers and declined in popularity.  However, by 2021, it was the most highly viewed “news” and talk program on daytime television.  (Source)

The show suffered through multiple controversaries with Rosie O’Donnell, Michelle Collins, Joy Behar, and Whoopi Goldberg.  No surprise there as these women feel the need to constantly shoot their mouths off while seeming to expect the rest of America to fall in line with their opinions and support them.

The View soon enough after Whoopi Goldberg was hired on became an attack panel, routinely excoriating “guests,” and anyone else (Or whatever topic) who the co-hosts deemed to be ripe for the picking.

With Whoopi Goldberg “moderating” the show, the attacks against those who don’t share the leftist point of view were often downright nasty.  Viewers tuned in, and still do it seems, in order to basically watch the co-hosts tear people apart, mock them, and heap their hate and derision on them.  Again, what is the appeal of this horrid show?

It’s all over YouTube that ABC is going to cancel The View, that the show is being sued for millions etc., etc., unfortunately, that is not true.

Whoopi Goldberg is a staunch leftist, if it was possible to replace the blood supply in a human body with Leftism, this would barely scratch the surface of Goldberg’s condition.  Whoopi’s Leftism flows so strongly in her veins that she can’t see the forest for the trees.  Take the issue of transgender women playing in women’s sports – Whoopi can’t see what the problem is.  Watch this clip from The View.
