| Rosie O’Donnell’s Explosive Exit From “The View” (UPDATED) |
| Friday, May 25, 2007 |
Rosie O’Donnell will not return to ABC’s “The View”. Basically, a few weeks ago she quit but planned to be back. This time she quit sooner:
In a statement today, Brian Frons, the president of Disney-ABC’s Daytime Television Group, said, “We had hoped that Rosie would be with us until the end of her contract three weeks from now, but Rosie has informed us that she would like an early leave. Therefore, we part ways, thank her for her tremendous contribution to ‘The View’ and wish her well.”
Barbara Walters, the show’s creator and co-executive producer, said, “I brought Rosie to the show. Rosie contributed to one of our most exciting and successful years at ‘The View.’ I am most appreciative. Our close and affectionate relationship will not change.”
In her statement, O’Donnell said, “I’m extremely grateful. It’s been an amazing year and I love all three women.”
Some may wonder about THAT.
