FNC’s Carlson: ‘The View Co-Hosts Should Be Embarrassed and Ashamed of Themselves’

Friday on Fox News Channel’s “The Real Story,” host Gretchen Carlson called out the co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” for how they handled Republican presidential candidate and former CEO of Hewlett-Packard Carly Fiorina appearance today after they had made comments disparaging her face as”demented” and a “Halloween Mask.”

Carlson said, “‘The View’ co-hosts should be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves today after conducting the so-called make-up interview with presidential candidate Carly Fiorina. After eviscerating her post-debate last week by calling her face demented and good for a Halloween mask, you might have thought they would start today by saying sorry. There were no apologies. Instead they claimed the crass comments were said because they’re comedians.”

Carlson continued, “The old comedic cop out. And it didn’t end there. The hosts asked her why she wasn’t talking more about the issues and asked very few questions about the issues. They also asked if she should smile more and have better sense of humor. I doubt that question would be asked of any male candidate. Women should support other women regardless of political slant. Today’s display is conservative women are held to a different standard and that’s coming from me, a registered independent.”
