Kathy Griffin Blasts Hasselbeck and McCain in a Heated Rant

Kathy Griffin made critical remarks about former "The View" co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Meghan McCain after making an appearance on the talk show. In a recent YouTube video, she expressed disapproval of the two women while appreciating the current panel.

Past Conflicts

Griffin recalled her experiences with Hasselbeck, who was on "The View" from 2003 to 2013. She mentioned their previous disagreements over jokes Griffin had made. During one episode, Hasselbeck called Griffin's jokes "untrue" and "not so funny."

Comments on McCain

In her video, Griffin criticized McCain, highlighting their contentious relationship during McCain’s time on the show from 2017 to 2021. Griffin characterized McCain as someone who frequently responded to her provocations.

Interactions with Other Co-Hosts

Griffin initially planned to criticize Alyssa Farah Griffin for her past work with President Trump but decided against it upon learning that Alyssa recently became a mother. Instead, she found Alyssa to be quite pleasant during their interaction.

The comedian also addressed why she is no longer allowed to do live shows or co-host "The View" following a controversial incident in 2017 involving a photo resembling Donald Trump, which led to public condemnation from the show's hosts at the time.
