Whoopi Goldberg Goes Off on View Co-Hosts’ Anti-Weed Arguments

‘Don’t Do That!’: Whoopi Goes Off onView Co-Hosts’ Anti-Weed Arguments (Mediaite)

Whoopi Goldberg has never been shy about her love of all things marijuana-related, even joiningThe Denver Post as a pot columnist after Colorado legalized recreational use of the drug this year. So she obviously had a lot to say about The New York Times editorial over the weekend that called for the federal government to end the ban on marijuana.

The View host happened to be outnumbered by her fellow panelists on Monday, most notably CNN’s S.E. Cupp, once again filling in as the show’s resident conservative, but also Sunny Hostin, who argued that marijuana is a gateway drug that should not be encouraged.

“I was thrilled to see it,” Goldberg said of the editorial from the “so-called paper of record,” adding, “I’m very, very, very happy about it.”
