Ladies Who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of The View
Ramin Setoodeh
My biggest regret was ever sitting down with [Ramin]. -Rosie O'Donnell
That’s something her colleagues who also participated could probably agree on. -Minneapolis Star-Tribune
I’ll be very honest: I read it and I immediately started praying. -Elisabeth Hasselbeck
When Barbara Walters launched The View, network executives told her that hosting it would tarnish her reputation. Instead, within ten years, she’d revolutionized morning TV and made household names of her co-hosts. But the daily chatfest didn’t just comment on the news. It became the news. And the headlines barely scratched the surface.
Based on unprecedented access, including stunning interviews with nearly every host, award-winning journalist Ramin Setoodeh takes you backstage where the stars really spoke their minds. Here’s the full story of how Star, then Rosie, then Whoopi tried to take over the show. How so many co-hosts had a tough time fitting in. How one nearly quit during a commercial. And how the director was being driven insane, especially by Rosie.
Setoodeh uncovers the truth about Star’s weight loss and wedding madness. Rosie’s feud with Trump. Whoopi’s toxic relationship with Rosie. Barbara’s difficulty stepping away. Plus, all the unseen hugs, snubs, tears-and one dead rodent.
