Whoopi Goldberg is going to be taking a two-week break from her duties as moderator on The View. While the move should be unremarkable, some have questioned the timing, given her recent on-air remarks and tirade towards President Donald Trump with regard to The Kennedy Center. Officially, though, while she will still appear on the show on Mondays, the 70-year-old star will be absent during the rest of the week to pursue a new professional commitment.
Atlanta Black Star is one such outlet that can’t help but question the timing. According to the outlet, Goldberg’s temporary departure follows a period of intense segments involving political debates. Per TV Insider, on the September 16th episode of The View, the discussion centered around the recent announcement that the board voted to close the Kennedy Center’s main building.
