“The View” Denies Elisabeth Hasselbeck Is Leaving, Conan O’Brien’s Audience Has Strong Reaction

Conan Obrien's audience reacts to news Elisabeth Hasselbeck not fired from The View

“The View” was the center of much drama recently as Joy Behar announced she was leaving, and word soon spread that Elisabeth Hasselbeck had been fired! Conservative media spread the word that Hasselbeck had been fired for her conservative views – a complete falsehood.

Conan’s feelings about Hasselbeck have been up front ever since she rather rudely questioned Barack Obama during the presidential election.   “Who the hell’s Elisabeth Hasselbeck… She won a reality show… she didn’t even win! She was, like, fifth!”   He then went on to propose an anti-Elisabeth Hasselbeck amendment to the constitution.  You can see the controversy over  Obama’s visit to The View here. The reaction to Hasselbeck’s non-departure as seen through the eyes of Conan’s audience is as funny as we’ve come to expect, and every bit as truthful as Hasselbeck’s firing.
