Joe Rogan has issued a scathing response after The View hosts claimed the public can’t trust him like they can trust them.
ABC News stars lamented Thursday that social media has opened the way to alternative news sources that are not fact-checked before publication.
“I think that’s why people like our show, because they know we’re monitored by ABC News,” Joy Behar said. “We went from Walter Cronkite to this guy, Joe Rogan, who believes in dragons.”
Rogan quickly responded to Behar, writing to X that he would take the title of “dragon believer.”
“That’s my new official X description,” Rogan said. The podcaster has indeed changed his X description to “Dragon Believer.”
Behar referenced comments made by Rogan earlier this month when he said he believes dragons roamed the Earth.
Rogan said, “You know what I’m really fascinated by is things that existed, like only in myth, but that every culture knows about – like dragons.”

“I think that’s why people like our show, because they know we’re controlled by ABC News,” Joy Behar said on The View on Thursday. “We went from Walter Cronkite to this guy, Joe Rogan, who believes in dragons.”
Rogan quickly responded to Behar, writing to X that he would take the title of “dragon believer.”
While admitting that fire-breathing dragons probably never existed, Rogan added that there was probably a “really dangerous reptile they called dragons.”
“The question is whether they actually flew,” Rogan pondered.
The hosts of The View have theorized about why Donald Trump won the presidential election in recent weeks.
In the aftermath of the election, Sunny Hostin even deleted her X account in what she describes as a “patriotic” protest against owner Elon Musk.
The talk show host told the Behind The Table podcast that Musk had made the platform worse.
“Elon Musk took over and I feel like he ruined it,” Hostin, 56, explained.
ABC News executives are reportedly actively seeking a conservative, pro-Trump voice to join the panel after all-star endorsements of Vice President Kamala Harris for president.
The talk show — co-hosted by liberals Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines and Republican Trump critics Ana Navarro and Alyssa Farah Griffin — featured the vice president in an episode just a month before the election.

Then, just one day after Trump’s victory, the panelists dressed in all black as if they were attending a funeral.
ABC News Group Chairman Debra OConnell and ABC News CEO Almin Karamehmedovic are holding sit-down meetings with executive producers and other senior editorial leaders to discuss the reporting, the New York Post reports.
The focus is mainly on The View, say unidentified sources.
The source further noted that all six current panelists supported Harris in the presidential election.
‘They lost. They’re out of touch with America,” the insider said, noting, “For a show about different perspectives, The View seems to be out of touch when it comes to Trump” and ABC News executives “don’t want to alienate people ‘. pro-Trump demographic” as they try to maintain the show’s ratings and ad revenue.
“Ultimately, these changes are not about politics. They are about economics,” the source explained. Trump got more than half of the votes.
“TV networks must find pro-Trump voices and diversify viewpoints to reflect the diverse perspectives of Americans.”
