On May 17, 2025, the famous TV show “The View” became the focus of a wave of intense controversy after Karoline Leavitt, a prominent political figure, publicly called for a boycott of the program right on the live wave. This event quickly attracted the attention of the public, especially on social networking platforms, where fans expressed their warm support for Leavitt’s spokesman. Many users have shared posts with praising content, calling this “essential words” and even claiming that the program “deserves to be banned” because of the controversial content in the past.

“The View”, a longtime talk show with the participation of famous female hosts, has been criticized many times for confrontation discussions and division comments. Leavitt, during the appearance on the wave, did not hesitate to criticize the program, saying that it has exceeded the limit in giving biased and disrespectful views. Her call to boycott immediately created a strong reaction wave. On the platforms like X, a series of posts with the hashtag related to “The View” and “Karoline Leavitt” spread quickly, with many users expressing their agreement and sharing the feeling “finally someone dared to speak up”.

The reaction from the audience does not stop at support. Some fans even organized online campaigns, calling for sponsors to withdraw financial support for the program. They think that “The View” has no longer representing the neutral and fair values that a national television program should have. Meanwhile, the supporters of the program were rejected, saying that this was an effort to censor freely speech. They argue that the program is only playing their role in making multi -dimensional discussions, though sometimes controversial.
The incident also raises the question of the role of talk shows in the context of modern communication. In an era that social networks can amplify all opinions, speeches like Leavitt can easily become a fuse for larger movements. Currently, there is no official information that “The View” will be canceled, but the pressure from the public and the boycott campaigns will certainly affect the future of the program. Producers and television stations are facing a difficult situation, when they have to balance the audience to keep the audience and handle increasing criticism.
Regardless of the results, this event marked an important time in the cultural war in American media. It shows the power of public statements and how social networks can shape public opinion in real time.
