Lawyers at ABC weren’t taking any chances on Tuesday following a series of slanderous statements made by co-hosts on “The View” about Matt Gaetz and the sexual misconduct allegations he faces.
Sunny Hostin, the most far-left of the liberal bunch, read a “legal note” that producers handed her to be read on-air explaining that Gaetz was cleared of wrongdoing by the Biden Justice Department. Sitting stone-faced, Hostin looked directly into the camera and read off a screen, an insurance policy the lawyers likely implemented to help guarantee she didn’t color the disclaimer with her own commentary. “Matt Gaetz has long denied all allegations, calling the claims ‘invented’ and saying in a statement to ABC News that ‘this false smear following a three-year criminal investigation should be viewed with great skepticism.’ The DOJ investigation was closed with no charges being brought.” Whoopi Goldberg then quickly took the show to commercial break.
