The hosts of «The View» want more Republican guests, but say invites to them largely go ignored
Despite what some might think, the hosts of “The View” want more Republican guests to come on the show. In fact, the ABC talk show has extended the invite to many — they’re just saying no.
Actress Cheryl Hines was Tuesday’s guest, stopping by in support of her new book “Unscripted.” But her time at the desk was largely dominated by the hosts pushing her on husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s medical views and advice. It got a bit tense at moments, but generally stayed respectful. Still, moderator Whoopi Goldberg chuckled as they returned from break after Hines’ segments ended.
“That was interesting!” she said coyly. “But that’s the great thing about ‘The View,’ you know? We want people to come and give their views! And everyone who comes here, we try to be respectful, and ask tough questions.
