Hasselbeck left the ABC show in July, after announcing that she was becoming a co-host on the Fox News morning show. Rumors had abounded about the reasons for her departure: was she let go because she was unpopular with viewers? Was the show trying to de-emphasize the political fights she was constantly a part of? Was she pushed or did she jump?
Hasselbeck has mostly maintained her silence, and she refused to be drawn in by TV Guide's Stephen Battaglio:
TV Guide Magazine: You mentioned focus groups earlier. We heard one reason changes happened at The View were related to research that showed the political discussions became a bit predictable. You knew which side everybody was going to come out on. Were you feeling that at all?
Elisabeth Hasselbeck: I really have no comment. There's a lot of misinformation out there so there will be a ton of reasons why or why not, or did she or didn't she, and that's all rear view mirror. I'm thrilled to be a part of Fox News.
