A former Trump White House director of strategic communications, Griffin has already sat down at the Hot Topics table on and off this past season and will return for the July 27 show as teased by The View‘s social media page.
Prior to Griffin, McCain served as the show’s conservative co-host from 2017 to 2021, making plenty of headlines during her run. Before McCain, the spot belonged to Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who began her run on the daytime series in 2003.
Created by Barbara Walters in 1997, The View is a talk show for women, by women that brings individuals from different backgrounds together to talk about current events and hot topics. Among the categories debated at the Hot Topics table are politics, news events, and much more. Current co-hosts include Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, and Sunny Hostin.
According to what sources reported to Variety, a deal with Griffin hasn’t been closed yet, but she’ll likely be announced as a regular co-host soon. Stay tuned for more updates on this addition to The View‘s panel as more details are unveiled.
