Anonymous whistle-blower comments should be taken with a grain of salt, but when these comments report that Whoopi Goldberg went on an angry rant, it’s not hard to believe.
Goldberg’s contract guarantees her 5 million dollars a year whether she’s fired or not. That contract likely emboldens the comedian and talk show host to speak her mind anytime, and anywhere she chooses.
This time, if the reports are true, she might be watching The View from her living room.
In a closed-door session with senior leadership of The View, Goldberg allegedly was upset over not being given more decision making authority. Goldberg reportedly went into a tirade.
“I’s a work for ABC who is my master. I’s a slave to ABC. It’s 12 Years a Whoopi at ABC.”
“I’s just a n***er following orders around here, master!”
The self-deprecating humor was not well received, allegedly, with ABC executives asking Goldberg to stop, but Goldberg then addressed Candi Carter, The View’s new producer. Goldberg let her know just exactly how she felt about the new chain of command.
“She told Candi: ‘I don’t take orders from your a**. Stay in your lane like you did when you worked on The Oprah Winfrey Show.’”
Only those who were there know what was really said, but if the comments were coming from Goldberg, it may not surprise anyone.
Goldberg does have a soft side for celebrities in trouble for their words. Goldberg defended Mel Gibson and Justin Bieber when it was reported that they used the n-word. We will find out if her co-workers will be as understanding with Goldberg as she was with Gibson and Bieber.
It can’t be true, we all know it is massa, not master.
