The View host Meghan McCain said she will not be silent after her fellow host Whoopi Goldberg told her to “stop talking” during the show.
“Dems and Rs alike need to confront the ugly truth: both parties are failing to be impartial jurors,” McCain said Monday on Twitter. “I won’t be quiet, even if the reality reflects poorly on the entire political establishment. I have a responsibility to speak for the 50% that feels media doesn’t represent them.”

“Pointing out things that are true is part of my job even if it angers people and even if it’s politically inconvenient,” she added.

Pretending half the country doesn’t exist won’t make them disappear. The culture war is real, and Americans who aren’t part of the overwhelmingly anti-conservative media deserve to have their views represented.

Goldberg went off on McCain during the Monday airing of The View after the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain accused the hosts of not wanting to hear a “conservative perspective.”
“Girl, please stop talking. Please stop talking right now,” Goldberg told the host. McCain, 35, said she would not talk for the rest of the show, and Goldberg responded that she was okay with not hearing from her. The argument came during a discussion during the show about the impeachment of President Trump.
