The View host apologizes to Elon Musk live on-air for mistakenly claiming he was 'pro-apartheid'
Daily Mail UK ^ | February 27, 2025 | Lauren Acton-Taylor

The View co-host Joy Behar apologized to Elon Musk live on-air after calling him 'pro-apartheid.'

Behar made the claim during a rant on Thursday's show against the South African billionaire and his relationship with President Donald Trump.

'The guy was not born in this country, who was born under apartheid in South Africa,' she said, later calling Musk a 'foreigner' and 'a foreign agent.'

'So, [he] has that mentality going on. He was pro-apartheid, as I understand it.'

After a commercial break, Behar retracted the comment and admitted that she had no evidence of it being a true.

'Now I'm getting some flack because I said that Musk was pro-apartheid. I don't really know for sure if he was,' she said.

'He grew up at that time when apartheid was in full bloom, before the great Nelson Mandela fixed that. He was around at that time, but maybe he was, maybe he wasn't - he might have been a young guy, too.

'So, don't be suing me, okay Elon?'

Behar drew chuckles from the audience before again attacking the administration.

'They're allowed to say any lie they want but we have to be really strict,' she continued. 'That's why this show's important.'

It must be cool for these chicks to be getting paid to do a show while they are on acid.

They will never admit there is an ethnic genocide of white farmers occurring in South Africa though.

Behar: "… before the great Nelson Mandela fixed that."

Nelson Mandela turned South Africa into a racist violent hellhole. May he rot in hell.

Sure is something. She puts it out there and then takes a small step back, just enough to prevent a lawsuit.

She did not retract the “foreign agent” claim.

Musk should warm up a team of high powered lawyers to end MSNBC once and for all....

He could buy MSNBC, NBC, and Comcast, and fire them all. He doesn’t even need to sue, but should just to torment them.

Anyone ask Sunny how her husband is doing, ya know the one currently in the pokey for tax fraud..and as far as Joyless now being anti immigration well about damn time, oh wait, she is only pro immigrant for those who are going to vote Democrat, the rest can get the fudge out

A Public Service Reminder that The Spew is under the aegis of ABCNews and not Disney General Entertainment Content, precisely so they are protected by Sullivan, so this Joy-less biotch feckless $^#! can slander Musk.
