“The View” Co-Hosts Salary Demands
Ratings on The View have shot through the roof this season–and so have the co-hosts’ salary demands.
The daytime gabfest, currently ranked No.2 among women aged 18-49, has experienced a ratings boom in recent weeks. The View now averages 4.2 million viewers a day thanks to the newly-extended “Hot Topics” segment. But the Season 12 ratings success has lead to money demands for hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Sherri Shepherd, and Joy Behar, who now want a bigger piece of the pie.
A National Enquirer informant says: “Barbara thinks their new salary demands are outrageous–some are asking for several million dollars–and she told one confident-’They should all be ashamed of themselves–I’ve never seen a greedier bunch.’”

I hope you get rid of elisabeth hasselback soon. She diminishes the View. She never shuts up. She interupts all the other women hosts on the show and constantly seeks to bring attention to herself, by raising her voice and yelling out loud or screaching. When ignored by the other ladies, she sits and pouts. She needs to learn to listen. She also needs to give the other women of the show a chance to express their views. She continiously tries to argue with the other hosts, who are very gracious and polite to her. That mouth of hers has got to go. I say make her disappear , into neverland.

Yes…yes…yes…I agree. Get rid of Elizabeth. I have never liked her. Eventhough sometimes I agree with what she is saying. It is embarrassing to females the way she rudly demands to be heard. Other people can voice their opinions without screaming over the other co hosts. This has really gotton old and it makes the show unpleasant. Now she wants more money. The network is crazy if they keep her much less pay her MORE money. No Way……! Please fix this, get rid of Elizabeth…….. Thanks………. linda
