Fans of the popular talk show The view express their frustration at Sunny Hostin’s apparent disrespect for her co-hosts.
In a growing wave of complaints on Twitter, viewers have recently pointed to her alleged bullying tactics, which include interrupting her fellow panelists and talking about them during on-air conversations, as reported by The sun.
Many of them credited Alyssa Farah Griffin as the co-host who is often on the receiving end of Hostin’s disrespectful behavior.
Some fans apparently had enough of her antics after watching Thursday’s episode and decided to take to social media to voice their concerns.
Also co-hosted by Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Ana Navarro, Sara Haines to join Hostin and Griffin, the multi-generational panel of women discusses hot topics such as socio-political and entertainment news.
Fan response: Fans of The View have taken to social media to demand that Sunny Hostin show some respect for her fellow co-host and stop interrupting and talking about them, especially Alyssa Farah Griffin
Disrespectful allegations: From the sounds of a number of tweets, viewers have grown tired of Hostin’s alleged bullying of other panelists by interrupting and talking about it during on-air conversations; Alyssa Farah Griffin seems to have been singled out as the most disrespected
“Do you finish Alyssa? It’s getting harder and harder to watch! Sunny is just rude and don’t disagree with her!’ wrote one viewer on Twitter, which is a great example of how many others feel about the topic on social media.
There would be plenty of others who would take their grievances to Hostin, who is a lawyer.
“Can you get Alyssa to finish a sentence? Tell Sunny to have some respect,” one fan tweeted.
“#TheView there goes Sunny again interrupting her co-host who walks over 5 minutes to a commercial!” another fan wrote.
“Sunny, you need to stop talking about the others — especially Sarah and Alyssa,” another person shared, adding, “They’re much more interesting and impartial than you — you’re so biased.”
One viewer suggested that all the other panelists give Hostin, 54, a dose of her own medicine when she tries to make a point.
“Please let your co-host finish their opinions as they do for you! Sometimes I wish they would please us all and disturb you once in a while! Oh boy.”
Some of the people who voiced their complaints about the disrespectful behavior towards Griffin, who is a political strategist, actually spread the blame to all the other ladies.
Hot Seats: Currently in its 26th season, the women’s multi-generational panel co-hosted by Ana Navarro, 51, Sara Haines, 45, Whoopi Goldberg, 67, Joy Behar, ,80, Alyssa Farah Griffin, 33, and Sunny Hostin, 54, discuss hot topics such as socio-political and entertainment news
Griefs: “Do you let Alyssa finish?” It’s getting harder and harder to watch! Sunny is just rude and don’t disagree with her!’ wrote one viewer on Twitter, which is a great example of how many others feel about the topic on social media
“They never let her finish her point…they are bullies” and “@ABC @TheView The View hosts constantly shutting down @Alyssafarah” are two examples of the other five co-hosts being blamed for cutting off Griffin.
Some fans offered Wednesday’s show as supporting evidence to the five ladies who showed a lack of respect for 33-year-old Griffin.
The ladies shared their thoughts on the dystopian artificial intelligence ad released by the Republican National Committee in response to President Joe Biden’s bid for re-election in 2024.
Many fans came to Griffin’s defense, asking Hostin and her colleagues to stop being “rude” to Griffin and let her finish her thoughts and statements.
Both Hostin and Behar were united in denouncing the video. Behar, 80, even called it a “losing strategy,” while Hostin described it as another example of a fear-mongering tactic.”
Once Hostin was done with her thoughts, Griffin began to voice her thoughts on the GOP campaign clip and how it could further dissuade people from lending their support to Republican candidates. As she continued her statement on the subject, Behar interrupted and asked her if she would re-elect President Biden or former President Donald Trump.
Currently in its 26th season, The View premiered in August 1997 with a panel that included journalists Barbara Walters and Meredith Vieira, attorney Star Jones, television host and journalist Debbie Matenopoulos, and comedian Joy Behar.
Throughout its run, The View has had 24 permanent co-hosts of varying characteristics and ideologies, with the number of contracted permanent co-hosts ranging from four to eight women per season.
