Is Whoopi Goldberg finished on the view?

That entire show is nonsence. I sure hope she is gone. I hope they shut down the entire program. They are blabbing on and on about topics they have no clue on. They speak politics like it is cut and dry and that they know the solution.

I don't have time to watch The View, but I do have time to read Variety.

This show makes money off controversy, and since the Fat Dyke left, they ain't got any. Bottom Line: Barbara Walters is gonna write two big checks: one to Whoopi Whatever (we will discuss Antisemitic Irony later) and Elisabeth Whatever (we'll discuss uneducated shills at the same time) for generating this one.

Do not imagine for a minute that Barbara Walters fears this more than firing someone. She is, after all, one of The Tribe.

If I won't let other people talk bad about my friends, why would I let my friends talk bad about themselves? I hate this term and I think it it used exclusively by lazy, sloppy thinkers. It's like when kids start using the F-word. They love the shock value and the feeling their saying something dirty.

I think Whoopi represents a large part of the Black community on this issue, but I think she's wrong on this one. I'm a big fan of hers, but I think this serves to show that we ALL have some room to evolve on this issue.

This all started in the 70's after the release of the movie "Apocalypse Now", which featured a scene with two black guys in a firefight with VC screaming "come on ni88er"!!! They were calling the VC ni88ers. This was novel and empowering to some, so it's use picked up quick momentum, to the point in mid-80's rap music where it was everywhere; a la E-Z E. This is American history!!!

Wow!! How did CaesarLives send his answer here all the way from the 1950's?

Blacks denied service in Restaurants,blah,blah,blah!!

No she's not but she should be. I find that term highly offensive no matter what context it is used in. If any of my African-American friends called me that they would expect a punch in the mouth. the word is and always has been demeaning and just because Whoopi thinks it is OK to toss around this demeaning term doesn't me others of her race do.

Simple remedy, turn the channel. I love Whoopi Goldberg and hope she keeps on making poor little Elisabeth cry. I saw those crocodile tears on EH and began to bust out laughing. She is a little girl in a grown up world. Totally out of her element. Keep on going Whoop!!!!!!

WG is one of the people who makes me glad I have other useful and interesting things to watch on TV besides 'The View'. They should rename it 'The Spew'.

You have GOT to be kidding. White people want exclusive use of the N word? Whitey wants to go into each African American home and dictate to them which words they can and cannot use amongst themselves? When I'm around white people, I hear the N bomb consistently coming out of their mouths.

By the way, "JEW" was a derogitory word used by the Romans against the Israelites. The Israelites began calling each other "Jews" as a way to defy the Romans, the equivalent of saying "Stick and stones......"

African Americans are being called the N word by white people every day. They're also being refused service at restaraunts, followed around dept. stores by security personnel, pulled over by the police for being black with a nice car, etc...

Blacks use the N word to destroy the power of the word. To mock the word, the meaning behind it, and the white people that use it.

Whitey needs to mind his own business.

As an African American, I don't understand why some people appear to get so upset over what African Americans do or say in a racial context regarding our own race. I don't think that such people, like you, have much regard for our race in any case, so I see this as hypocritical ranting. "Not all of them" says it all.
