Whoopi Goldberg's Near On-Air Slip-Up
Whoopi Goldberg caught herself before she was about to say the word 'bull----' on 'The View.'
The actress defended her relaxing summer, but she nearly slipped up when talking about how she tried to stay away from negative headlines.
"There is not a lot you can do about what you’re hearing [in the news]. You can do a lot about what you’re living, who you’re living with, how you’re living, where you’re living, and your family," she explained. "Paying attention to your family, making them laugh, making them do stuff, feeding them food they don’t want to eat but that you want them to eat, or having reunions with people, those are all things that we can do to combat the..."
The actress declared, 'I didn't say it!' after she caught herself almost cursing on-air.

"I didn’t say it!" she declared with a smile, prompting her costars and the audience to laugh.
"These are the things we can do to combat all the things that are being heaped on us on a daily basis, things we cannot do anything about... but we can work on ourselves in our homes and our families," the Ghost star continued.

Is 'The View' Getting Canceled?
An FCC chair said 'The View' could face 'consequences' for dissing Donald Trump.
As OK! reported, rumors swirled earlier this year that the ABC series could be canceled for their constant remarks against President Donald Trump.
"It's entirely possible that there's issues over there," Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr said in an interview. "Stepping back, this broader dynamic, once President Trump has exposed these media gatekeepers and smashed this facade, there's a lot of consequences. I think the consequences of that aren't quite finished."
"It's time for America's legacy broadcasters to return to promoting the public interest," he warned.
