>> LET’S BE TRUTHFUL ABOUT IT,
BECAUSE THE HOLOCAUST ISN’T
ABOUT RACE, IT’S ABOUT MAN’S
INHUMANITY TO MAN.
>> Kayleigh: WHOOPI GOLDBERG’S
REMARKS ON THE HOLOCAUST LEADING
A TWO WEEK SUSPENSION, DESPITE
WRITTEN APOLOGIES, ABC NEWS IS
BENCHING HER AND ASKING HER TO
"TAKE TIME TO REFLECT AND LEARN
ABOUT THE IMPACT OF HER
COMMENTS.
COHOST JOY BEHAR BRIEFLY
MENTIONED THE SUSPENSION AT THE
START OF TODAY SHOW.
>> GOOD MORNING AND WELCOME TO
"THE VIEW."
ARE YOU ALL SAW THE NEWS, WHOOPI
GOLDBERG WILL BE BACK HERE IN
TWO WEEKS.
OKAY?
>> Kayleigh: HARRIS, IS THIS
COUNT OF GNOMIC ACCOUNTABILITY,
IS THIS ENOUGH?
>> Harris: THIS IS
SHORTSIGHTED ON THE SIDE OF
ABC NEWS.
AND I KNOW KIM GODWIN HAS BEEN
GOING TO NATIONAL JOURNALISM
WORK EXPOS, SO I DON’T KNOW WHAT
SHE’S LIKE AS A BOSS AT ABC NEWS
BUT SHE IS A TREMENDOUS LEADER.
THE FACT THAT SHE DIDN’T DEAL
WITH THIS ON THE DAY IT HAPPENED
IS A MESS.
LIKE, WE WHOOPI GOLDBERG ON
STEPHEN COLBERT BEFORE WE HEARD
FROM ABC NEWS.
WHY IS THAT HAPPENING?
WHY DOESN’T THE PRESIDENT OF ABC
GET A WORD IN BEFORE THE
TALK SHOW HOST GOES ON ANOTHER
TALK SHOW?
THAT JUST DOESN’T SEEM LIKE
LEADERSHIP TO ME.
IT SEEMS LIKE A BIG MISTAKE.
AND IT’S PROBLEMATIC FOR THE
SHOW BECAUSE NOW, INTO WEEKS,
YOU’RE GOING TO SAY YOU ARE
GOING TO FIX THAT INFLICTED
WOUND -- AND I DON’T SAY
SELF-INFLICTED BECAUSE IT WAS
INFLICTED ON ANYONE WHO IS
WATCHING WHO WAS HIT BY THAT
GARBAGE BECAUSE IT WASN’T TRUE.
WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THOSE PEOPLE
WHEN YOU WANT THEM TO WATCH YOUR
PROGRAM WHEN SHE COMES BACK?
THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE HAS
SAID THEY ACCEPT WHOOPI GOLDBERG
GOLDBERG’S APOLOGY.
BUT SHE APOLOGIZED, AND ON THE
SHOW THE NEXT DAY, HOW DOES SHE
GET BACK ON THE SHOW AFTER THEM
UP, UP THAT SHE HAD ON
STEPHEN COLBERT?
ALL OF IT IS LACK OF LEADERSHIP.
WE KNOW WHO SHE IS BECAUSE
THROUGH THE YEARS SHE SHOWN US.
SHE SHOWED US WHO SHE IS.
WE HAD IT ON A MONTAGE OF VIDEO
YESTERDAY.
SO NOW, WHAT DOES ABC DO NOW?
THE RATINGS GO DOWN WHEN SHE’S
OFF THE SHOW AND THEY HOPE FOR
THE BEST, DO THEY TRY TO BRING
HER BACK OR EASE HER BACK
THROUGH THE BACK DOOR?
>> Kayleigh: WHEN COUNCIL
CULTURE COMES FROM THE
COUNSELORS, I DON’T BELIEVE IN
CANCEL CULTURE, I REALLY DON’T.
WHAT’S IRONIC ABOUT THIS IS
THESE LADIES DO BELIEVE IN
COUNCIL CULTURE.
I JUST HAD TO DO A CURSORY
GOOGLE OF THE TIMES THEY’VE
TALKED ABOUT CANCEL CULTURE,
WHEN GONE WITH THE WIND WAS THE
CANCELLATION OF COPS AND OTHER
SHOWS.
THEY SAID SOMETIMES WHEN THEY DO
SOMETHING HORRIBLE, THE COMBINED
PATIENTS, THIS WAS A LONG TIME
COMING ABOUT CANCEL CULTURE
GENERALLY END IT SHOULD HAVE
ALWAYS BEEN A ZERO-TOLERANCE
POLICY FOR RACIALLY INSENSITIVE
BEHAVIOR AT WORK.
IT WAS ONLY MEGHAN McCAIN WHO
SAID THIS IS A SLIPPERY SLOPE,
MAYBE WE SHOULD STAND UP AGAINST
CANCEL CULTURE.
AND GOOD FOR MEGHAN McCAIN.
BUT INTERESTING WHEN THE
CANCEL CULTURE ERRORS BECOME THE
SUBJECT OF CANCEL CULTURE.
>> Ben: AT THE TWO WEEK
VACATION, LET’S STOP CALLING IT
A SUSPENSION.
IT’S A TWO-WEEK VACATION IN THE
MEDIA WANTED TO PROTECT HER, ABC
WANTED TO PROTECT HER, CBS
WANTED TO PROTECT HER AND PUT
HER ON THEIR SHOW AND SHE
SCREWED UP THE APOLOGY MULTIPLE
TIMES.
THIS IS NO ACCOUNTABILITY, THIS
IS A VACATION.
WILLSHE WILL BE BACK.
I WOULD ARGUE IT’S IN A FIREBALL
OFFENSE, NOT OPINION.
IT’S PURE BIGOTRY AND RACISM
FROM WHOOPI GOLDBERG AND WHAT
SHE SAID.
BUT I WOULD SAY THIS IS NOT EVEN
A SLAP ON THE WRIST.
IT’S A TWO WEEK VACATION AND
MANY AMERICANS WISH THEY COULD
HAVE RIGHT NOW.
