In February, the Media Research Center announced a campaign to hold ABC’s advertisers accountable for the anti-Christian bigotry spewed on The View. There, the show’s co-hosts smeared Christians as “dangerous” and “mentally ill.” But The View’s history of bashing people of faith didn’t start in 2018.
On September 12, 2006, then-co-host Rosie O’Donnell drew a moral equivalence between the fanatical terrorists who slaughtered 3000 people on 9/11 and... American Christians. After token conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck had the temerity to bring up radical Islam, O’Donnell spat back: “Radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam in a country like America where we have a separation of church and state."
In the years to follow, The View co-host would become a 9/11 truther and doubt that Muslim terrorists were involved. On March 29, 2007, she promoted trutherism, saying of September 11th:
I do believe it is the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics for the World Trade Center Tower Seven, building seven, which collapsed in on itself, it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved…
She soon left the show.
The View’s trashing of Christians continues to this day. On February 13, 2018, co-host Joy Behar mocked Vice President Mike Pence and other Christians, deriding: “That's called mental illness, if I'm not correct. Hearing voices.” Co-host Sunny Hostin mocked Pence’s faith as “dangerous.”
