There have been rumors swirling for quite some time now that Meghan McCain would be leaving “The View.”

This announcement comes on the heels of the president of ABC issuing Meghan and Joy Behar a warning about their toxic, nasty behavior.
Rumor has it that Meghan was the one who was mostly blamed for the “personal attacks” and viewer outrage.
As it stands now, I am sure that the other cat ladies on the show are secretly happy that Meghan is leaving — but it’s HOW she went about leaving that probably really frosted their butts.
Meghan made the announcement out of the blue today, and never bothered to tell her co-hosts – they heard about it at the same time the viewers did.
