routine criticism bit.Bassett, the Jackson-based network’s first chief meteorologist, was let go from her desk after uttering a racial epithet — “fo shizzle, my nizzle” — on air while reporting on rapper Snoop Dogg’s latest addition to his Cali wine line.Following the on-screen gaffe, which quickly went viral on social media, Bassett was removed from the station’s team page online and has been absent from broadcasts since March 8.Goldberg, 67, said it’s “hard to keep up” with the seemingly ever-changing social rules of what people can and can’t say — especially “if you’re a person of a certain age.”“There has to be a book of stuff that nobody could ever say, ever, ever, ever. Include everything,” Goldberg said.
“The things that change, you can say this, but you can’t say that, but next week you might not be able to say this. It’s hard to keep up.”If someone slips up, they should “at least” be allowed to take responsibility, Goldberg continued, and admit — as she’s done herself multiple times — “You know what, I’ve just been informed that I should not have done that.”“Because saying ‘you’re out’ means that you don’t want to hear what people have to say or the mistakes that they might have made that could have helped somebody else not make that mistake,” she concluded.The Post has reached out to Bassett for comment.The screen star knows a thing or two about on-air blunders – and public apologies.
Goldberg used a slur for Romani people while discussing former President Donald Trump earlier this month. She also sparked controversy last year after using a Holocaust slur that resulted in a temporary suspension from The View.

indictment on criminal charges came down on Thursday are being dismissed by one Fox News pundit as just an example of how Trump was able to become president in the first place.Former congressman and Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz appeared on Howard Kurtz’ “MediaBuzz” Sunday to discuss the 34 counts that Trump faces allegedly falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to Stormy Daniels. The conversation eventually turned to Trump’s fiery response on his Truth Social site, calling Manhattan District Attorney a “degenerate psychopath.” After reading back Trump’s comments, Kurtz asked Chaffetz if those comments worry him, to which the former Republican politician responded with dismissiveness.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hasn’t officially declared himself a candidate for the 2024 presidential election at this point, and that’s fine by Whoopi Goldberg and the hosts of “The View.” That’s because, as Whoopi so bluntly put it on Thursday morning, DeSantis is “not ready for America.”To kick off the day’s Hot Topics discussion, the women discussed their opinions on how DeSantis has positioned himself politically thus far, particularly with his responses to twice-impeached former president Donald Trump’s attacks, as well as DeSantis’ own gripes about “wokeness.”When Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines began debating if DeSantis is actually playing a smart long game, having gone to both Yale and Harvard, Whoopi noted that DeSantis’ degrees don’t mean much to her.“Just because people have education, doesn’t mean they have any kind of real sense,” Whoopi said.

With the now very real threat of indictment looming over twice-impeached former President Donald Trump, Republicans are once again circling around him and defending him — including Nikki Haley. And considering she’s actively campaigning against her former boss, Alyssa Farah Griffin was baffled by this move Tuesday on “The View.”To kick off the day’s Hot Topics, the hosts played a supercut of GOP figures supporting Trump, including Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley. “When you get into political prosecutions like this, it’s more about revenge than it is about justice,” Haley said.
