Elisabeth Hasselbeck Not Leaving 'The View'

Despite recent rumors, a rep for Elisabeth Hasselbeck tells "The Insider" that she’s not leaving ABC’s morning chatfest “The View.”

"While Elisabeth has a great relationship with Fox News, there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that she is leaving ‘The View,’” her rep said. “Elisabeth is passionate in her beliefs and enjoys being a part of this dynamic group of women and engaging in daily conversations."

In addition, a rep for ABC said, "Barbara Walters and Bill Geddie, executive producers of 'The View,' consider Elisabeth to be vital to the program.”

Political passions have run high on the program in recent weeks, as the presidential election approaches and the “View” hosts’ opinions span the political spectrum.

  • Annoying? No I think that's Joy. Elisabeth is a smart cookie with intellectual things to say. I've watched a lot of the view and guess what they interrupt each other all the time and they interrupt her ALL the time, especially Joy. So get over the...

  • You really can't expect anything else from Elisabeth, comming from the show Survivor. She ate dead and alive crawling animals and wore skimpy bathing suits . That should tell you that she is a hypocrit. She know pretends to be all that and some .

  • Boycott the View until they fire Elisabeth . This is the only thing that the Viewmaster & Barbara will react to . When Rosie & Star gave their unwelcomed opinions on the Bush WH , they were fired.

  • I think she needs to leave the view because she doesn't listen to anyone, it all about her getting her point out and no one else can really get in a word. You don't know what other people are saying Elisabeth if you don't hush and listen before you...

  • Elisabeth may be a survivor but In my mind she is a spoiled, opionated brat, who talks down to lower class women. She is rude, interrupts and has to be sleeping with someone at ABC to keep that job.

  • I think she is rude, interuppts, irritating and has the worst listening skills I have seen in some time. Barbara cannot believe that this is good for the show. Sometimes I think her and Rush are twins!

  • I thought "The View" meant that all hosts had a chance to speak their view. Joy has become shrew-like and she wasn't that way before. Whoopi tries to be moderate but fails on occasion. Sherri is funny but clueless. Barbara should take more days off...

  • I can no longer watch The View because of Elisabeth Hasselbeck. She is so extremely narrow minded. She reminds me of someone who would leap off a cliff if told to do so by a leader. She is ready to "fight" with everyone else on the panel every...
