It seems that the rumors are true. The View’s months-long search for a conservative to replace Meghan McCain is ending with the selection of faux conservative Republican Alyssa Farah Griffin. That’s according to the U.K.-based Daily Mail which reported on Tuesday that “ABC will announce her new position imminently.” They also have some purported outrage from inside the network that’s pretty hilarious.
“Farah Griffin, 33, will be named as Meghan McCain’s full time [sic] replacement on the panel from September for the show’s 26th season,” wrote senior reporter Claudia Aoraha. “Three insiders with knowledge of the discussions with Farah Griffin have told DailyMail.com that ABC will announce her new position imminently.”
It also contained quotes from insiders who were critical of Farah Griffin’s pick, and humorously called her out for being the opportunistic operator she is.
According to a source, she said that: ‘My jaw dropped when I was told that she was the pick. It makes no sense.

It’s obvious that Farah Griffin’s views and allegiances change based on who is lining her pockets. NewsBusters revealed that Farah Griffin was keen to find out which Democrat her coworkers were supporting so she could press them. “I’m curious. Who are the Dems running? Where is like the Obama energy that we could bring?”
When pressed by Whoopi goldberg about comments she made pointing to the apparent red wave that was coming during the November midterm election, she even backtracked them. She seemed to be trying to reduce Democratic voter turnout.
The Daily Mail reported that Farah Griffin’s behind-the scenes animosity has spilled onto the air. “These people who are now all, like, recovering addicts – recovering addicts in the Trump world that come on, even on this show. They come on this show, they go on other shows and they’re turning on Trump,” decried Joy Behar in June.
The 26ThThe season of The ViewThe season begins in September so it is possible that the announcement will be made before the close of the current season.
