A New View?


According to the New York Times, ABC is close to signing a deal with comedian's Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd to join "The View." The new panelists would fill the roles on the program once held by Rosie O’Donnell and Star Jones.

The Los Angeles Times first reported yesterday that Ms. Goldberg and Ms. Shepherd were in negotiations to take positions on “The View.” An ABC executive, who requested anonymity because the talks were continuing, said yesterday that “people are speculating about those two names” and that the newspaper’s report was “prematurely saying a deal is in its final stages.”
I hope they do sign Whoopi, if for no other reason than to provide a counter to conservative co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Hasselbeck better hold on to her chair, because it could be a very bumpy ride!
