“There’s something kind of marvelous about being on a show like this because we are ‘The View,’ and this is what we do,” Golberg stated in her return Monday. “Sometimes we don’t do it as elegantly as we could, but it’s five minutes to get in important information about topics. And that’s what we try to do every day, and I want to thank everybody who reached out while I was away.”
She added, “It is an honor to sit at this table and be able to have these conversations because they’re important. They’re important to us as a nation, and to us more so as a human entity.”
Goldberg didn’t point out her suspension particularly.
The comic and host drew outrage two weeks in the past on “The View,” saying throughout a roundtable dialogue a couple of Tennessee faculty district determination to ban “Maus” that “the Holocaust isn’t about race” and that it concerned “two White groups of people.”
Later that evening, Goldberg was suspended by the community.
“While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments,” Godwin stated. “The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities.”
Goldberg made solely temporary reference to the controversy on Monday’s episode earlier than transferring on to matters of the day.
“We’re going to keep having tough conversations,” Goldberg added. “In part, because that’s what we’ve been hired to do.”
