On Friday’s episode of *The View*, Joy Behar and ABC News’s political director Rick Klein got into a fight. The argument arose when Klein, a guest on the show, suggested that Behar consider looking for a new job. A contentious conversation regarding politics and the upcoming midterm elections resulted from this.
Behar probed Klein during the interview about how much attention reporters pay to gas prices and whether or not they consider Republican options, emphasizing the value of following up with questions. Klein made a mocking offer of a job to Behar, but she wouldn’t change the topic.
This month, Behar turns 80. To show her dedication to *The View*, she signed a new contract, defying rumors that she was about to retire. “I have no plans to retire. “I plan to remain for the entire duration,” she said.
Behar’s perseverance has been evident throughout her time on the show, as seen by her temporary termination in 2013 and subsequent reappointment in 2015. Reflecting on the experience, she remarked, “We still don’t know why they dumped me.”
Joy Behar’s involvement on *The View* demonstrates her dedication.
