“The View” conservative cohost has ‘cried at this job’ backstage 6 times over having ‘the only opinion that’s different’

The View‘s conservative cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin has felt the heat of the Hot Topics table, and on Wednesday, she revealed she doused the flames of differing politics with a few backstage tears over the years.

During a discussion on the episode about younger generations creating safe spaces for themselves to cry at work amid difficult situations, legal expert Sunny Hostin kicked off the chat by saying, “I’ve never felt the luxury to be able to cry at work. I just try to get my work done, be as excellent as I can, and go home and chill out.”

Griffin, 36, jumped in to admit, “I cry at work,” but that she hides it “so my bosses will never know.”

After her colleagues expressed shock over her admission, Griffin doubled down, telling them, “I have cried at this job at least a half a dozen times, are you kidding? Have you done this job?”

She then cued up a meme from The Simpsons on a screen behind her, and quoted the animated program as she said, “This is where I come to cry. Cool. That’s like, every corner of this building.”

Griffin, whom has regularly clashed with the cohosts over topics related to the 2024 presidential election, elaborated that “this is a very hard job to do,” and that it’s difficult to “have the only opinion that’s different at a table of five people” in the process.

After the camera cut to producer Brian Teta watching from the sidelines, Griffin clarified her stance.

“I would like to state, for the record, this is a great job, and every time I have cried, Brian gives great hugs,” she said, laughing.

Entertainment Weekly has reached out to a representative for The View for comment.

Moderator Whoopi Goldberg looked disturbed by Griffin’s words, closing the segment as she said, “The thing that shocks me is, there is nothing that people should be able to do to you to make you cry,” before telling Griffin, “Let us support you, because nobody should be crying at this job. Nobody.”

Upon joining The View full time alongside fellow Republican Ana Navarro in 2022, Griffin’s first few months on the job were relatively tame. However, she and Navarro have repeatedly traded barbs on the air, including at least two instances of eye-rolling at each other on the air.

In December 2023, Navarro and Griffin also clashed on air over a Hot Topics segment about toxicity in the workplace.

“I can’t really get a word in without you attacking me. So, I wouldn’t say this is a totally different environment of women supporting each other,” Griffin told Navarro, who responded by telling her, “Oh, I haven’t attacked you yet.”

Earlier that year, Griffin engaged in perhaps her most heated on-air fight to date with Hostin, which saw the former Donald Trump associate melt down in an “absurd” disagreement.

“Well, Sunny likes to make it personal with me,” Griffin said after feeling like she didn’t receive an opportunity to respond to Hostin’s claim that Griffin couldn’t appropriately defend her former boss.

“Are you going to give me a chance to answer? I mean, this is absurd. This is not what this show is about. This is Barbara Walters‘ legacy, let a woman speak!” Griffin said, before calling the show a “disgrace” before a commercial break.

The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on ABC.
