‘The View’ Obstructed: Whoopi Goldberg Apologizes For Saying The “Holocaust Isn’t About Race”

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Jenny Anderson / Getty The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg has always been pretty hit-and-miss when it comes to making an argument that really makes use of thorough critical thinking skills. It’s like—on one hand she was always good for a blunt-yet-intellectual read when telling former co-host Meghan McCain to ST-entire-FU, but she also used to defend Bill Cosby like she was expecting a Huxtable-signed recommendation letter to Hilman.  Recently on her show, Goldberg was having one of her “Nah, sis’, you really should have kept that one” moments when she spoke loud and wrong about the Holocaust during a discussion about the Tennessee school board’s ban of the book Maus. “Let’s be truthful about it because [the] Holocaust isn’t about race,” Goldberg said&...

Political Acrobatic Op Van Jones Says He Felt “Ambushed” By ‘The View’ Interview

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty CNN pundit Van Jones is sharing his thoughts on the now-viral interview he had with The View, namely co-host Sunny Hostin. As previously reported, on Friday (Feb 5) Van Jones was a guest on The View, and things did not go well for him. The CNN political analyst got called out for hip flip-flopping opinions of Donald Trump, and it was quite entertaining for those tired of his tap-dancing antics on national television. “There are those who really accuse you of being an opportunist, a chameleon, so to speak, who provided a racial cover for former disgraced, twice-impeached, President Trump … People in the black community don’t trust you anymore. What is your response?” Hostin asked him before fellow co-host Ana Navarro followed up by saying: “You’ve lost a lot of ...
