Former moderator and current "Today" show host Meredith Vieira returned to her old stomping grounds at ABC's "View" today for the first time in over year.
After warmly hugging and kissing the current five hosts, these were her opening lines:
From ABC, 10/8

Has The View paid off the Huff Post? Please get this off your site. It is not news and no longer a program with any relevance. There must be something else to talk about other than the innanities these women discuss.
So what? Most of the comments about these "View" articles featured on Huffington Post express disgust with its fixation on this show and rightfully ask "How is this even news? Why is this site saturate with articles about this dumb program." Yet no one has gotten the hint and this is the least interesting article yet. A quick glance at responses to all the View-related entries indicate that readers of the Post mostly agree that people should be discouraged from engaging in the kind of inane drivel that occurs on this show, neither to take it seriously or even pay attention to that level of discourse. Because it's dumb and no one cares. P.S. Hi mom!
wait, i don't get it... why is something inane about "The View" ALWAYS on HuffPo? it's news? is there a whole lot of audience demographic overlap between the two? what gives? every week they do or say something stupid... why is that surprising at this point? is HuffPo going to start posting reports from "The Bold and The Beautiful" now too?!

Meredith was my favorite on the VIEW. She didn't even get upset when I ran into her car in the parking lot--that was a long time ago.
What a class act! Then, Meredith jumped up on the table, removed her flag pin, dropped trou, squatted and proceeded to take a steaming dump on it. The audience roared with approval.
A proud day for all libs.
You must all watch "The View" or else your noses wouldn't be out of joint.
You all are jealous because actually Hasselback is the only person on the show that makes any sense.
LOL
I have tried to watch the View several times but it is just a bunch of cackling hens that all talk all the time over each other and that Hassleback bitch ought to be pulled behind a car, and now that otherwise likable sherry whats her name turns out to be a total pin head bible nut.....this show is hardly enlightening and hardly entertaining. it was better when Rosie was there.
Exactly! Please stop posting and advertising for "The View" on the Huffington Post!!! What the hell cares? Pretty please. It's dumb, distateful, and completely irrelevant. You lower Huff Po's standards each time you post on this inane show which helps dumb down America.
I can't wait for it to be cancelled---before more people start believing the world is flat.
Has ABC paid HuffPo to advertise this show?
I agree. Let's keep 'The View' out of Huff Po.
-AliLiz-
If HuffPo banned 'The View', she'd have to ban the equally inane posts about Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity, etc., ad nauseum, as well.
Highlighting idiotic pronouncements by rightwing media 'darlings' such as the aforementioned, and wingnut fundies like 'The View's' Elizabeth Hassleblech and Sherrie Sheperd, actually helps expose what a rotten job our media is doing.
And believe it or not, media outlets regularly tap into HuffPo for feedback.
The number of comments about The View dwindles. Wonder if we can get it down to Zero on the next article? No response is the best response to women who trash themselves as an advertising tactic to rank in millions of dollars for their sponsors. Switch them off completely. They will be dumped faster.
The whole show is worthless with out Rosie.
Love this story. Would like to see a lot more of this type of stuff on HuffPo. Thanks!
how lame and pathetic to want to see this crap on HuffPo. May i suggest you go to tmz.com or x17.com for celebrity crap.
huffpo is lowering it's standards with all the celebrity gunk and it only muddies up it's website. i can see it covering some stuff abou the view because of the right wing bitch elisabeth's constant mouthing her ignorant opinions, but the rest of this celeb gunk we could all do without.

"The View" is irrelevant, supercilious, banal and now crude. What an embarrassment.
To whoever does the booking would you please invite Arianna on The View.She's given The View enough free press, that's the least you gals can do for her.She's done everything except for ask for an invite.Book her on the show already!!!
I prefer Arianna in print and not on tv. When she's on with Bill Maher I can't understand a word she says.

Yes but as we all can see or read Arianna has this desire to be on The View perhaps at the table during "Hot Topics".She's great on Mahr and probably will be a guess soon,since he's written for the HP many times already.
As a resident of Meredith's home town of East Providence, Rhode Island, I can tell you that she is the most illustrious person this banal burg has yet produced. We have a long way to go.
The only way I'd ever know this show is still on the air is because HuffPo keeps having threads about it.
Otherwise, who cares???
Why is bitches censored on your front page?
