Joy Behar and Rick Klein, the political director of ABC News, got into an argument during Friday’s broadcast of *The View*. The conflict started when Klein, a show guest, advised Behar to think about getting a new job. This led to a heated discussion about politics and the approaching midterm elections.
Behar pressed Klein during the conversation regarding the emphasis that reporters place on petrol costs and whether or not they take Republican alternatives into account, highlighting the significance of follow-up inquiries. Behar was sarcastically offered a position by Klein, but she refused to stray from the subject.
Behar, who turns 80 this month, has resisted rumors of retirement by inking a new contract, demonstrating her commitment to *The View*. “I don’t intend to retire. I intend to stay for the duration,” she declared.
Behar’s tenure on the program has been distinguished by her tenacity, as evidenced by her brief dismissal in 2013 and eventual reappointment in 2015. “We still don’t know why they dumped me,” she said, looking back on the incident.
