Whoopi Goldberg Digs Into Her Point

On Thursday, January 18, Whoopi Goldberg brings up the topic of abortion. As the panel goes back and forth about the ideas, the conversation gets a passionate rhythm among the panelists. Within the discussion, Whoopi makes a point that things should return to the way they were to better serve women. Adding, “It did not require anyone to get an abortion. It only required that people stay out of your business.”

Then Whoopi makes a strong statement to encourage viewers. She says, “There is nothing wrong with being afraid. It’s what makes you get up and make a change. So don’t think because somebody says they’re afraid, it’s a bad thing. There’s nothing shameful about being afraid.” Another panelist pulls in the point that it is in effect a brave thing. Then she agrees with other panelists saying, “I think it is brave to be afraid.” But she gets an abrupt off-stage interruption that wrecks their flow.

Despite The View’s producer, Paul‘s somewhat patient plea, one of the other hosts whines, “But Paul, we’re right in the middle of it.” Then Whoopi Goldberg acknowledges, “I see, I see.” But her body language speaks loudly as she adjusts defiantly, and says, “This is very brave of me.” In an act of protest, she takes her time to shift around, tightening her lips. Rather than immediately do what she is told, her animated facial expressions show she is pretending to choose what will happen. Then she nonchalantly agrees and says, as if it were her call all along, “We’ll be right back.” In response, the crowd laughs and claps as The View goes to a slightly off-schedule commercial break.
