Sunny Hostin: Last News

Not holding back! Whoopi Goldberg and her cohosts on The View reacted to fans of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and House of the Dragon who feel the shows are too ‘woke’ — questioning if their complaints are racially motivated. 

Whoopi Goldberg and her co-hosts on “The View” tackled the racially fuelled attacks that have been hurled at HBO’s “House of the Dragon” and Prime Video’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power”, with racist complaints about people of colour portraying silver-haired Targaryens in the former and elves, hobbits and other denizens of Middle Earth in the latter.
