‘The View’ Is a Cancer on the Culture and the Country

Derek Hunter  

"The View is a cancer and it metastasizes through society via its audience; an army of hateful AWFULs weaponized by ignorance and set upon the country like Frankenstein’s monster. We have ABC News to thank for it, and Disney on top of that, both of which are the cultural equivalent of cigarette companies. Remember than and vote accordingly." 

"It almost seems impossible, and I wouldn’t believe it if didn’t see it with my own eyes, but through the miracle of “new math” and the sheer stupidity of the ABC New product “The View,” it is not possible to bring five human beings together and make their collective IQ less than the sum of their individual IQs. How can people coming together be dumber collectively than individually? Skill, I have to assume, and really trying. I say trying because all the ladies on The View are so dumb that they have to be trying, like the whole show is some sort of dare. The end result is a show that makes its audience dumber – a cultural cancer on the country.

In order to avoid any standards to skirt from lawsuits, and to deny anyone not a doctrinaire leftist claims of “equal time” on the public airwards, The View is part of ABC News, not ABC entertainment. Those of us who work on the public airwaves know that there are rules before elections that require, should a candidate ask for it, that they get equal time as a guest on a show 30 days before a primary and 60 days before a general election. 

"It's rarely an issue, as few Democrats have the guts to appear on conservative talk radio because they can’t actually defend their agendas or policies, so they don’t ask for that time – and it has to be asked for. But conservatives aren’t afraid of leftists and would happily take on the five harpies on the show. Producers, however, know that would be an absolute disaster for the show, so they will never allow it. As a “news” show and a “journalistic” outfit, they don’t have to. 

"It's not surprising ABC would do this, but you’d think Disney might want to protect the brand. Maybe they are." . . .More...

Oh, wait! There is this:

"From “Dr. Jill Biden would make a great Surgeon General because she’s a great doctor” to “Republicans have overruled the will of the voters” in Virginia because the State Supreme Court tossed out the unconstitutional power grab Democrats tried to rush through, you’d have to try to get the basic facts of daily life and basic civics as wrong as these women do."
