‘The View’ Hosts In Hot Water After ABC Gives Them This Warning
growing tension as co-hosts are reportedly being pressured to tone down criticism of President Trump. Executive producer Brian Teta has allegedly urged the panel to be more cautious when discussing Trump, especially as ABC undergoes major staff layoffs.
The shift in tone comes ahead of Trump’s inauguration as the 47th president. Although the show maintains strong ratings—averaging 2.6 million viewers—morale is low after at least nine staffers, including veteran producers, were let go. Adding to the stress, the show’s recent move to ABC’s Hudson Square studios has sparked conflict.
The View now shares space with The Tamron Hall Show, causing clashes over dressing rooms and taping schedules. Some co-hosts are unhappy that high-profile guests must share limited space, while an insider noted Hall’s perceived diva behavior. Despite the tension, others praise both teams for cooperating well.
Staff frustrations extend beyond studio logistics. Employees complain of cramped workspaces, traffic-heavy commutes, and a lack of resources. ABC insists the new building is well-equipped, but insiders say otherwise.
With job cuts looming and pressure from above, the co-hosts are reconsidering their approach to Trump.
Sara Haines recently admitted feeling disconnected from the audience due to the panel’s anti-Trump stance, while Alyssa Farah Griffin called for more engagement with conservative voters. As ABC restructures, the future tone of The View remains uncertain—but behind-the-scenes drama continues to unfold.
