Whoopi Goldberg ‘livid,’ threatening to quit ‘The View’ over her suspension: source
New York Post ^ | 2-2-2022 | Alexandra Steigrad

Whoopi Goldberg is "livid" after she was suspended from "The View" over her claim that the Holocaust was "not about race" -- and is telling co-workers she is going to quit the show, according to a source.

Goldberg, 66, feels "humiliated" at being disciplined by ABC execs after she followed their advice to apologize for the ill-conceived comments, a well-placed insider told The Post.

"She feels ABC executives mishandled this. She followed their playbook. She went on 'The Late Show With Steven Colbert' and then apologized again on 'The View' the next day," a source said.

The source added that while Goldberg is taking the suspension hard and says she wants to leave the show, insiders believe she's likely just sounding off.

"Her ego has been hurt and she's telling people she's going to quit," the source said. "Suspension from 'The View' is like getting suspended from Bravo. The bar is very low."

Reps for Goldberg and ABC did not return requests for comment.

Irony is a raging anti-semite with the last name Goldberg.

I always assumed that was not her real name. I just never cared enough about it to find out one way or the other.

If what you say is true about her picking it to get more parts, well, that's even more RACIST!

she’s the daughter of Robert James Johnson and Emma Johnson

“It’s been rumored that her mother thought the name Johnson wasn’t “Jewish enough” for Goldberg to make it big, but that’s not been confirmed”

Something just dawned on me with this. Whoopee has damaged the brand. Whoopee had been a perfect mouthpiece of the government serving media propaganda machine. Her loyal stick to narrative scripts was what media masters sell to the bureaucrats. Whoopee going freestyle with an opinion scared the living crap out of the overlords. She must be made an example out of.

They didn’t want to nail her head to the floor, she had to insist. There’s nothing ABC wouldn’t do for her.
