The hosts of ABC’s The View were forced to issue four “legal notes” in one episode regarding comments they made about several of President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet picks.
Co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar were forced to issue legal notes after comments made during an episode on Friday about allegations surrounding former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who was Trump’s pick for attorney general before he withdrew his name from consideration; Fox News host Pete Hegseth, who Trump picked to serve as his secretary of defense; and Pam Bondi, who Trump selected to serve as attorney general.
The View co-hosts also issued a legal note over comments made about former New York Republican Rep. George Santos, according to the New York Post.
The legal notes made during the episode came after comments made by co-hosts Ana Navarro, Sara Haines, former Trump administration official Alyssa Farah Griffin, Hostin, and Behar.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Not a legal beagle, but at some point does this get interpreted as a too clever by half method of continuosly engaging in slander? Even to the point of contempt (oh look, we got another legal note hahaha)?
Alex Jones got sued for 1.5 billion. Rudy Giuliani got sued by two accused of pulling ballots out in the middle of the night in 2020.

Just the thought of those harpies choking on their own bile every day as they rage about Trump being president makes me smile.

If you got that many warnings at any company I worked for, you were shown the door. What is going on here?

At some point this gets interpreted as justification for executing a termination for cause clause in an over paid employees contract.

Yep, at some point you’d think apologies just won’t cut it. Maybe one apology, okay. After that, sue them.
Anyway, ABC should put this notice up at the beginning of every ‘The View’:

I agree. It’s a strategy. They feel they can say anything at all. Actionable in court? Oh no! We read a legal notice! We’re OK now. And here we go again — saying more stuff that might be actionable in court! But wait! Here is another legal notice! So we’re OK again!
It’s more Kabuki.

I don’t know how anyone with an IQ above 60 can watch this crap.

Interesting that suddenly, ABC is concerned about what might be slander/libel being spewed on their airwaves. They didn’t seem too concerned when it was the Dementia/Heels Up DOJ. Now that there will be a Trump/Vance DOJ come January, they seem quite a bit more worried, almost as if they think someone will actually DO something about it.
