'View' Stars Fight with Bill O'Reilly, Storm Off Set
TV personalities Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar furiously charged off the set of The View Thursday morning after getting into a vicious argument with Bill O’Reilly over the mosque near Ground Zero, according to TMZ.
Tempers flared after O’Reilly, the host of The O’Reilly Factor on Fox News , stated that the mosque should not be placed near the World Trade Center Site because “Muslims killed us on 9/11.”
After the two women stormed off stage, a distressed Walters proclaimed, “You have just seen what should not happen … we should be able to have discussions without washing our hands and screaming and walking off stage.”
Walters continued, “I love my colleagues, but that should not have happened.”
Goldberg and Behar eventually returned to the set, though Behar did not return to her usual seat, located right next to Bill and instead opted to sit on the end of the couch.
