Whoopi Goldberg, moderator of The View, stopped the show abruptly during a conversation on the March 26th episode after noticing a member of the audience using his phone. She walked over to the man and asked him to not use his phone to record again, which caused a hushed silence in the studio. Once Goldberg returned to her seat, cohost Joy Behar asked what the man was doing, to which Sara Haines replied that he was recording. The incident was just one of many feisty moments for Goldberg that morning, including getting upset when asked to throw to cohost Sunny Hostin for a legal note by a producer offscreen.

Despite the distractions, Hostin was able to break in with a legal note about Donald Trump’s ongoing legal battles. She mentioned that Trump has denied any wrongdoing and has pleaded not guilty to all 88 charges. Goldberg made a pointed remark to the other panelists, indicating that the audience may not have been aware of this information. After finally getting through the discussion, an exhausted Goldberg announced a commercial break before returning to the show.

Goldberg has a history of being brutally honest as the moderator of The View since 2007. In a recent episode, she chastised her cohosts for believing conspiracy theories about Princess Kate Middleton’s whereabouts and well-being. She emphasized that spreading rumors and false information about public figures can have serious consequences and is not something to be taken lightly. Shortly after this episode aired, Kate Middleton announced that she had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer after undergoing a medical procedure in January.

Goldberg’s no-nonsense approach and direct communication style have made her a beloved figure on The View. Despite the occasional outbursts and interruptions during the show, her dedication to keeping the discussion on track and focusing on important topics like politics and current events is appreciated by both her fellow cohosts and the audience. She is known for holding her ground and not backing down from controversial issues, making her a unique and respected figure in the world of daytime talk shows.

The incident with the audience member recording on his phone was just one of many examples of Goldberg taking charge of the show and addressing issues as they arise. Her quick thinking and assertive demeanor have helped keep The View a relevant and engaging platform for discussing important social and political issues. As the moderator, Goldberg plays a crucial role in making sure the conversation stays on track and ensuring that all voices are heard, even if it means calling out distractions and disruptions as they occur.
