Emmy-winning talk show host Rosie O’Donnell fears ABC’s The View might be next in Trump’s American TV show and hosts hunt-down campaigns.
Rosie co-hosted The View from 2006 to 2007, and after a long hiatus, she returned as a guest in 2014.
Recently, unconfirmed rumours say that ABC is reviewing The View’s alleged “liberal bias.”
As President Donald Trump celebrated CBS’ decision to cancel Stephen Colbert’s Late Show and warned Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Gayle King could be axed next, The View has also received a warning.
The White House shared a statement last month saying The View could be the “next to be pulled off the air.”
“The show with five women speaking their own opinions. That’s the threat now,” O’Donnell wrote about the show in a TikTok post. “Because it’s not enough to run the country into the ground. You have to control what people SEE. What they HEAR. What they think. And The View? Well, that’s a little too much woman — a little too much truth — a little too much Joy Behar saying ‘I don’t think the insurrection was a tourist visit, Karen.’ Apparently, the truth is dangerous now.”
Rosie specifically used the term “Trumpism” to define the ongoing feud between the President and American media, struggling for freedom of speech.
“This is about removing any program that doesn’t align with Trumpism,” she added, noting that she has been in a speech war with Trump since her stint on The View.
Rosie also called upon her followers to speak up against the media being silenced when Trump was re-elected as U.S. president last year.
“We do not get quieter. We do not make ourselves smaller so they can feel more comfortable,” O’Donnell wrote. “We speak louder. We take up space. We stand together and say what is true, even when it shakes the walls. Because the most dangerous sound in the world is a woman who knows what she’s talking about — and refuses to stop.”
With Trump silencing big media outlets and warning other networks, the fear of authoritarian media ruling over America still abides.
