Joy Behar, the departing co-host of "The View," joined comedian Judy Gold for a night of laughs at 92Y on March 12, 2013. In this clip, Behar dished about her much buzzed about on-air confrontation with Fox News host Bill O'Reilly in 2010, where she walked off set after O'Reilly made controversial comments about the 9/11 terrorists.

On our stage, Behar pulled no punches:

"O'Reilly is another joke...the day I walked off the show on him, I was really pissed at him. Here's a guy that's saying the most stupid thing as far as I was concerned, implying that all Muslims are terrorists."

She added,

"That is incorrect logic, it's impossible, so stop saying it and be quiet...and he wouldn't stop, and he kept going, so I didn't want to deal with him."

Behar also shared details about co-host Barbara Walter's reaction:

"Barbara did not like it: 'No, you sit here.'"

Behar shot back, "No, I don't sit here... I don't!"
