• Rosie O'Donnell Left 'The View' as Producers Were About to Fire Whoopi

    Rosie O'Donnell's departure over at "The View" could not possibly have come at a better time -- for Whoopi Goldberg. The two have clashed almost daily ever since O'Donnell rejoined the roundtable discussion last September, leaving the network scrambling to ease on-camera tensions in the hopes that the sinking ratings would then somehow stabilize. After mulling over possibilities, ABC producers had apparently decided to fire Goldberg, but then O'Donnell quit first.

  • ABC News is Happy to See Rosie O'Donnell Leave 'The View', Blames Her for Dismal Ratings

    We recently told you guys that Rosie O'Donnell has decided to pull the plug on her second stint as a co-host on ABC's The View just a few short months after joining the daily chatfest. She initially chalked up her departure to being needed at home to care for her kids after splitting with her wife, Michelle Rounds, but anyone that has caught the show recently knows that O'Donnell has been feuding with Whoopi Goldberg. They agree on virtually nothing and have never found a way to be okay with each other while holding opposing opinions, so the result is an enormous amount of strain on the entire production.

  • Rosie O'Donnell Quits 'The View' and Her Marriage All at Once!

    Rosie O'Donnell is the first one to jump from that sinking ship that is ABC's The View. While things between her and Whoopi Goldberg have gone from cordial to screaming matches backstage in just a few short months, apparently her crumbling home life also directly played a part in O'Donnell's decision to leave the show. It has been confirmed that she split from Michelle Rounds, her wife of three years, last November and she is choosing to put her kids first right now.

  • Are Rosie O'Donnell's Days on 'The View' Already Numbered?

    We recently told you how Rosie O'Donnell and Whoppi Goldberg have been clashing on nearly everything while trying to work together as co-hosts on ABC's "The View". The show has been in a total state of flux this season with Barbra Walters gone from the roundtable and two new ladies trying to find their footing behind such heavyweights as O'Donnell and Goldberg. Unfortunately, in all of the chaos the ratings have taken a significant dip and both stars are blaming each other.

  • ABC News Gets 1st Interview with Ferguson's Darren Wilson

    Less than 24 hours after learning that there would be no indictment in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, we were all handed embattled Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson's first interview. While it was confirmed that Wilson had met with several journalists last week, he ultimately decided to speak on the record with ABC News heavyweight George Stephanopoulos, according to Yahoo! News. It was the first time Wilson has been seen in public in months, and he told his side of what happened during that violent altercation with Brown Aug. 9. According to "Time" magazine, Wilson claims that he feels like his conscience is cleared because he was doing his job by the book, and if he did not stop Brown, then he knew he would have been killed by him. He also made it clear that from his standpoint race was irrelevant and it would have ended the same way even if Brown had been white.

  • Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie O'Donnell Battling Behind the Scenes at "The View'" Over Bill Cosby Scandal and the Ferguson Case

    ABC's "The View" recently became a part of the network's news department and that means that the current roundtable panel is not just expected, but also encouraged to tackle topics that are currently making headlines. That's supposed to be the whole premise of the show anyway, but recently Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie O'Donnell found themselves knee-deep in a fight that basically pitted them against one another when the topics were the Bill Cosby scandal and the Ferguson case.
