‘The View’ co-hosts mock Mike Pence’s faith, bring flood of complaints to ABC News

ABC News has been flooded with more than 25,000 phone calls since “The View” co-hosts mocked Vice President Pence’s Christian faith last week, disrespecting the former governor of Indiana for speaking with Jesus and even suggesting he has a “mental illness.”

Media Research Center President Brent Bozell published an open letter to ABC News after the controversial comments, calling for an apology for the “anti-Christian remarks.” ABC News received 25,363 calls as of early Monday morning from people complaining about the comments made by “The View” co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar, according to the MRC.

Hostin said it’s “interesting” that former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman recently said that Pence talks to Jesus and believes Jesus tells him things. Hostin said she is a “faithful” Catholic but doesn’t want her vice president “speaking in tongues.” Behar then said, “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you… that’s called mental illness.”

Bozell called the conversation a “serious problem,” while saying the comments were “insulting” to all Christians. He also detailed other examples of what he called a “disturbing trend” of ABC and “The View” insulting Christians.

“Make no mistake, the slurs against the vice president’s faith insult millions of Christians and are unacceptable. If there are no on-air apologies after this deplorable episode, Christians will tune out ABC programming across the board. And we will do our best to encourage it,” Bozell wrote.

The MRC, which bills itself as “America’s leading media watchdog in documenting, exposing and neutralizing liberal media bias,” has also reached out to at least five advertisers of “The View.”

“I am sure the advertisers of ‘The View’ will be just as appalled as I am about the anti-Christian remarks made on the show,” Bozell wrote.

Pence himself didn’t appreciate the comments and slammed ABC News Wednesday on C-SPAN.


Joy Behar: 'As a Democrat, I am offended by Republicans'

Liberal 'The View' co-host Joy Behar criticized Republicans and Chief of Staff John Kelly over the handling of the Rob Porter scandal. Conservative co-host Meghan McCain took Behar to task.

“To have ABC maintain a broadcast forum that compared Christianity to mental illness is just wrong,” Pence said. “It is simply wrong for ABC to have a television program that expresses that kind of religious intolerance.”

Pence has also criticized “The View” in recent interviews with Fox News and Axios.

The controversy has resulted in a variety of industry watchdogs

THose people on that show are just so intolerant and wrong. Why in the hell anyone with an ounce of sense watches that show is stupifying. What a waste of airtime! That's right, calling Christianity is a mental illness will make the viewers tune in in droces! What assholes like the Liberals!

Mike Pence got on a christian TV CBN and said what Joy did..now they have their claws out ready to pounce..

.

It’s pretty obvious that the View has its claws out, otherwise they wouldn’t have mocked Pence’s faith.

Well it wasn't ok..But why does CBN 700 club call gays mentally ill?

.

What wasn’t okay? You would need to ask someone that is a part of the show or at least watches the show, I have never watched it and have no desire to watch.

I don't watch it either..it's just trashy. I read about on the news.

I have watched it and Joy does have a big mouth..

Is that show really still on?

Where was Prince's faith when he followed blindly a bully, sexist and recently someone who cheats on his wife with prostitutes ?

Politics and religion should not mix. Lincoln made friends with enemies to advance his causes. As the old saying goes, politics makes strange bedfellows.

Eaglewings was blaming Pence for stirring up the phone calls to ABC. Now if The View had not said a word, do you like they would have got any calls? Nope, The View had their claws out and they got scratched. In chess you don’t make a move unless you know the opponent’s next five moves, obviously The View did something stupid.

They got the attention they were after. A VP should be busy with important stuff and not jabbing with women on a talk show. Same with his adulterer boss, tweeting like a teenage girl all day long.

Joy Behar is your typical whiny entitled Liberal that loves to mock but if you mock her back, she cries “victim”.

 

[Lysistrata]

Pence has shown that he is only a member of his cult, not a person able to represent 320-plus millions of Americans. He has shown that he hates LGBTs and beds women only as submissives. He would be fine in Guyana or raising chickens and making cheese on a farm among the Amish, not as any sort of leader of the "Free World." He may not be an evil man, but he is seriously sick and should not occupy any position in which he may influence any other American's life.

You're an idiot who seems to be deathly afraid of someone telling you can't do something. Such hatred and fear from such a small minded person. There is nothing wrong with Pence at all.

Please example why a stupid little bitch like pigpence should be allowed to presume to tell me that I can't do something. He's a whore of of an authoritarian. He can screw anyone who will have him. and use his penis the way he wants. But please tell me why authoritarianism should mean anything to me. Authoritarians are slime. So you like your little bitch. pigpence is pure trash and not worthy of my time.

This spells out your ignorance quite well. I invite you to show where he has ever tried to stop you from being a carpet muncher. He has every right to disagree with what you are. Nobody has the right to actually stop you, but everyone who wants to for whatever reason has the right to disagree with you.

I don't know what a "carpet muncher" is, nor do I want to as it seems to be something pornographic. I just don't don't want him to be in a position to make decisions for decent people. He belongs on some chicken ranch somewhere having sex with his hoochie mama.

You seem to judge and are an authoritarian, that makes you the same as Pence. Congrats.

Seriously? How am I an "authoritarian"? Then how do I get authoritarians like pigpence to keep his hands off of the rest of us? I'm not interested in his trash, I don't want it to affect my family and friends, but he is trying to pile it on his fellow Americans. Yes. I have an opinion of him. He's a pig. He's a lowlife. If this is "judging," so be it. Everyone "judges." He doesn't have to be LGBT and he's got his hootchie mama for sex on demand. What the hell else does he want? It's not "authoritarian" to want to keep this lowlife out of our lives, and it seems that this little scumbag always wants in.

Such an intelligent reply. So you explain how we Americans keep this guy and his ridiculous sect from having an impact on our lives. PS: the Taliban isn't welcome either.

You have to ask? You do realize that someone’s firearm ownership is a personal thing, it’s none of my fucking business, it’s none of your fucking business and certainly none of the federal governments business.

‘The View’ co-hosts mock Mike Pence’s faith, bring flood of complaints to ABC News

ABC News has been flooded with more than 25,000 phone calls since “The View” co-hosts mocked Vice President Pence’s Christian faith last week, disrespecting the former governor of Indiana for speaking with Jesus and even suggesting he has a “mental illness.”

Media Research Center President Brent Bozell published an open letter to ABC News after the controversial comments, calling for an apology for the “anti-Christian remarks.” ABC News received 25,363 calls as of early Monday morning from people complaining about the comments made by “The View” co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar, according to the MRC.

Hostin said it’s “interesting” that former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman recently said that Pence talks to Jesus and believes Jesus tells him things. Hostin said she is a “faithful” Catholic but doesn’t want her vice president “speaking in tongues.” Behar then said, “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you… that’s called mental illness.”

Bozell called the conversation a “serious problem,” while saying the comments were “insulting” to all Christians. He also detailed other examples of what he called a “disturbing trend” of ABC and “The View” insulting Christians.

“Make no mistake, the slurs against the vice president’s faith insult millions of Christians and are unacceptable. If there are no on-air apologies after this deplorable episode, Christians will tune out ABC programming across the board. And we will do our best to encourage it,” Bozell wrote.

The MRC, which bills itself as “America’s leading media watchdog in documenting, exposing and neutralizing liberal media bias,” has also reached out to at least five advertisers of “The View.”

“I am sure the advertisers of ‘The View’ will be just as appalled as I am about the anti-Christian remarks made on the show,” Bozell wrote.

How did some pig's concern about his "firearm ownership" drip into this thread? You like pigpence because of guns? Do you like any vermin because they like killing machines, hate gays, screw submissive women, and then slather the whole thing over with a sick version of a Supreme Being? Sick.
