A rep for the show denies this rumor calling it

ridiculous. Ratings are up. We are very happy with the team we have. Raven is a great addition to the panel.

The View began August 11, 1997, as part of ABC’s daytime programming block. The show’s concept was conceived by Barbara Walters and Bill Geddie, and is executive produced by Candi Carter and Brian Teta. The View is the fourth-longest-running national daytime talk show in history, behind Live! with Kelly and Michael, The Phil Donahue Show, and The Oprah Winfrey Show (25).

The original panel consisted of Walters, moderator Meredith Vieira, Joy Behar, Star Jones, and Debbie Matenopoulos. In addition to Behar, the current panel consists of moderator Whoopi Goldberg, Raven-Symoné, Michelle Collins, Candace Cameron Bure, and Paula Faris.
