Whoopi Goldberg Could Be Fired From The View For the past year, weve been begging for The View host Whoopi Goldberg to get off the air. Now, rumor has it that ABC has finally seen the light, and she may be the next to be fired. According to reports from ET Online, Goldberg has been even more antagonistic on set than usual. Sources close to her believe that she is intentionally trying to get the network to release her from her $5 million a year contract. Shes constantly at war with management, one source told ET. Its so bad that some execs think shes daring them to fire her so she can go off and do other things, particularly after her slave outburst. She knows if they did fire her, theyd have to pay out her contract, and shed be paid $5 million for doing nothing. Maybe its just us, but wed rather the network pay her millions for doing nothing than rewarding her for her ignorance. Whoopi loves the money, but she doesnt want to work so hard anymore, the source continued. She doesnt come in prepared, she doesnt really engage with other panelists and guests. She gives some one-liners and moves on. As it stands, Whoopi is in the final year of her contract. Of course, ABC is denying any friction with the controversial host. We hope Whoopi is here for a long time to come, one ABC spokesperson said in a statement. She is a vital part of The View who delivers everyday as moderator and always comes to play. What do you think? Are you ready to wish Whoopi good riddance?
