You're right:<br /> The View sucks anyway ;) Why do we care so much hehe ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-937160 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 21:08:36 +0000 PointeShoesTutus 937160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have not watched The View in ages. Hiring Jenny McCarthy just ensured that I deliberately won't watch the show now. I think her anti-vaccine stance is a threat to public health and just not supported by research. Not to mention she says she cured her son's autism-way to put out misleading information to families with autistic children. Not a fan of hers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-937091 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:42:10 +0000 mrsjazz 937091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Yes!

I've never liked Jenny McCarthy or understood her appeal--ever since that show she hosted on MTV. I was so disappointed when Jim Carrey started dating her because I love him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-937002 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:16:24 +0000 apis 937002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Count me in as another person very disturbed by her anti-vaccination views, and concerned that she's being given a platform to share her mind on the topic. I also agree with @ree723: I really hope that parents *would* trust medical professionals or do independent reading rather than depending on the viewpoint of some random "celebrity", but that doesn't seem to be the world in which we live. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936880 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:30:51 +0000 Ree723 936880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's an idiot and I hate that we give people like her a platform to air their erroneous views to the general public. It is even more disheartening that so many people take the word of 'celebrities' as truth. Ugh. I hate that she went to my high school, it's an embarrassment to the rest of us who graduated from there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936877 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:28:52 +0000 JerricaBenton 936877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blecch I really dislike her since her antivaccine crusade. But I hate the view too, so i'll just avoid all of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936859 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 19:21:28 +0000 dagret 936859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. I can't stand her. You know that before she decided Evan had autism, she was convinced he was a "star child" she could heal with crystals? Also, if her son really responded that way to a gluten free diet it is unlikely he was actually autistic in the first place. I also agree she's detrimental to society - not only trying to convince others to not vaccinate but also giving parents of children with autism false hope about a cure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936775 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:52:37 +0000 calsmom 936775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: ouch. I don't agree with her stance, but that's a bit harsh... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936753 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:47:02 +0000 Lindsay05 936753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: i agree but when you look at what the view is going for, ratings, this may help with that. If they were looking for certain level of intelligence, I doubt Sherri would be on there! I definitely agree, some things should just never be said but I have heard Joy and Barbara say some pretty ridiculous things! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936620 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:07:33 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 936620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lindsay05: Hassleback has opinions, conservative opinions. That's ok. She's entitled to them. What Jenny has are false facts. She states her reasoning as "facts" and spews them everywhere. She claims she cured her son's autism. Can autism be cured? Hmm.<br /> I am all for controversial opinions and everyone is entitled to feel anyway they want, but to vomit out false claims as medical facts? No, Jenny, just.....no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936614 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 18:05:11 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 936614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's a dumbo. Is she funny? Yes. Is she beautiful? Yes. But, as far as her autism campaign went: she is detrimental to society. I don't care for her.<br /> I did think her book was humorous, but not informative. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936599 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:57:37 +0000 Lindsay05 936599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Personally I think they need someone controversial on the view. I liked Elizabeth because of her strong conservative views. Lots of people didnt agree with what she believed but does that make her wrong? Same goes for Jenny, she will have her strong view points and lots of people will not agree. The whole point of the show is to express all views and make people debate, I think she will be good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936595 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:56:14 +0000 spaniellove 936595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm disappointed that they chose Jenny after all the misinformation and scary medical advice she has put out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936533 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:27:49 +0000 Pink Champagne 936533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Welllllll... She DID gain a LOT of weight while pregnant. Numbers aside, she was pretty big when pregnant soooooo... Take that as you will, but I don't think there's anything wrong with her calling herself a "whale" or whatnot in the sense that I think she was trying to poke fun at herself, and rightly so. She probably knows that being that big wasn't healthy for her, and she was probably embarrassed (again, as she should be).<br /> That being said, her viewpoints on vaccinations are scary. I haven't liked The View for a long time, and this isn't the way to go if they're trying to gain viewers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936510 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:16:07 +0000 HLK208 936510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@stargal: aren't Joy and Barbara leaving too?</p> <p>I'm not a fan of her but I haven't liked the view for awhile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936502 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:11:23 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 936502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think she's funny. I don't like that she and Holly Robinson Pete went on a devastating anti-vaccine campaign. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936491 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:04:09 +0000 stargal 936491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How is the view still on the air?!?!? There has been soanu cohost changing and its gonna downhill.<br /> I fins it funny they replace Elisabeth with jenny. Haha what an insult to Elisabeth. Hmm don't care for either of them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936321 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 15:40:49 +0000 Freckles 936321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: To quote her, i kid you not, "Well, I believe that parents' anecdotal information is science-based information." Nuff said. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936320 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 15:40:23 +0000 MamaMoose 936320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that it's sad that she has spread so much false information. But I also think it's important to remember that she is also just a parent who is desperate for a reason/cause/scapegoat for her son's diagnosis. </p> <p>And I actually thought Belly Laughs was funny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936284 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 15:25:12 +0000 Boheme 936284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only tune in to the View sporadically but I'll be consciously avoiding it now. The misinformation she has spread makes me angry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jenny-mccarthy-on-the-view#post-936275 Tue, 16 Jul 2013 15:20:40 +0000 MsMini 936275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it is a shame, not only do I find her uneducated and I think the way she spouts false information is disgusting. I also think she is extremely annoying, and I won't be watching the View as long as she is on it. </p>
