ABC News’ “The View” has eased up on booking political guests, according to a report from Semafor, amid a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) inquiry into the liberal talk show.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, the FCC<\/a> launched an investigation into ABC’s “The View<\/a>” amid the agency’s crackdown on equal time for political candidates after Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico<\/a> appeared on the daytime gabfest. Disney\u2019s ABC believes “The View” is bona fide news and, therefore, exempt from the equal time rule.<\/p>\n

The program hasn’t hosted anyone running in a competitive midterm race since Talarico.<\/p>\n

Semafor reported<\/a> Monday that the inquiry compelled the show to “hedge” the show’s guests.<\/p>\n

An ABC source said that “The View” is not known for booking non-elected political candidates and has traditionally had a high bar for political interviews.<\/p>\n

Semafor reported that a representative for Mamdani attempted to get socialists Darializa Avila Chevalier and Claire Valdez, who he backed for Congress<\/a>, on the show. ABC’s “The View” reportedly said they couldn’t accommodate the socialist candidates, who just came out victorious in New York’s primary elections.<\/p>\n

Co-hosts Alyssa Farah Griffin and Sara Haines have pushed back on some of the socialist candidates’ controversial statements during the show.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m gonna full-blown call her an antisemite. She would proudly call herself that, trust me,” Haines said of Chevalier, who has faced backlash over several problematic statements.<\/p>\n

ABC launched an on-air campaign<\/a> urging viewers to support “The View” and eight Disney-owned ABC affiliates in its battle with the Federal Communications Commission<\/a> (FCC).<\/p>\n

ABC\u2019s new campaign features a petition to declare that “The View” indeed qualifies as a bona fide news interview program<\/a>. A commercial debuted Monday during the program that declared, “\u2019The View has welcomed your favorite guests for nearly 30 years. Now the FCC wants to control who is allowed to appear on the show. Tell the FCC to let the viewers decide. You have until July 6th.”<\/p>\n

ABC’s liberal talk show overwhelmingly hosts Democratic guests, and all the hosts regularly criticize President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

In 2026, the show has brought on more Republicans, though many were guest hosts to fill in for Alyssa Farah Griffin, the lone Republican co-host, who was on maternity leave earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The show hosted Vice President JD Vance<\/a>, former Trump lawyer Alina Habba and former GOP lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene in 2026.<\/p>\n

In the first seven months of 2025, the show hosted 102 left-leaning guests and zero conservatives, according to the Media Research Center (MRC).\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
