Williams’ remarks came during an industry conference where she reflected on ABC’s programming decisions over the years. While acknowledging the show’s longevity and cultural impact, Williams expressed regret over its overall contribution to society.

“In hindsight, ‘The View’ may not have been the wisest endeavor,” Williams remarked. “While it has certainly generated viewership and revenue for the network, it has also perpetuated divisiveness and sensationalism in the media landscape.”
