28 Aug
Summary
- The View celebrates 30 years with a new season starting September 8.
- Confirmed co-hosts include Goldberg, Haines, Behar, Navarro, Hostin, and Griffin.
- ABC faces a lawsuit over an FCC investigation into 'equal time' rules.
The iconic talk show "The View" is preparing for its 30th-anniversary season, premiering on ABC on Tuesday, September 8. The upcoming season is confirmed to feature the return of its established panel of co-hosts: Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin.
The show's milestone anniversary arrives as ABC is embroiled in a First Amendment lawsuit against the FCC. This legal battle stems from an FCC investigation examining whether "The View" is subject to the agency's equal time rule. The FCC is also pursuing an early review of ABC's broadcast licenses.
In June, ABC aired promotional spots encouraging viewers to submit comments to the FCC. These spots highlighted the nearly 30 years "The View" has been on air, featuring guests and covering viewer-relevant issues, while urging the public to voice opposition to potential FCC control over the show's guest appearances.
