During recent broadcasts of the talk show, permanent hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, and Sunny Hostin were announced before taking their seats at the table.

Noticeably absent from the introduction was guest-host Alyssa, who has reportedly been hired as a full-time host.

Instead, the 33-year-old’s appearance was quickly mentioned by moderator Whoopi before immediately jumping into the day’s discussions.

The View watchers took their opinions to Twitter, pointing out the supposed snub.

“I love how quickly they’ve been saying Alyssa’s name at the beginning, giving no chance for the crowd to boo,” one fan tweeted.

“It’s like they read our tweets and want us to know they’re on our side,” another agreed.

“Nor did one solitary person clap for her,” a third user added.

Last week, it was reported that Alyssa had been hired as a new full-time co-host following Meghan McCain’s exit last year.

Three sources informed Daily Mail that Alyssa would be joining The View’s 26th season, which begins in September.

FANS BOYCOTT

But many fans slammed the choice of the new conservative host, calling instead for favorite Ana Navarro to be named host.

On Twitter, the outrage was swift.

” I will stop watching The View if former Trumper, Alyssa Farrah Griffin, is hired,” one viewer shared. “Give the job to Ana Navarro, even if she has to stay in Florida!”

Another added: “If The View has integrity and wants a truly different conservative voice that is not extremist and has never sold out, that would only be Ana Navarro.

“They should reconsider and hire her, or many of us will simply not watch the show anymore.”

On viewer even called the show out for dragging their feet about making the official choice.

“The View is afraid to publicly announce they hired Alyssa as a permanent co-host because they know viewers will RIGHTFULLY leave in droves!”

MORE BACKLASH

Thursday’s episode stirred backlash after Alyssa seemingly made a jealous remark toward a guest on the show.

In a virtual interview, the hosts spoke to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, where Alyssa mentioned her roots in the presidential residence.

At one point in the conversation, Alyssa veered away from the political discussion to comment on the guest’s “fabulous” office space.

“… And Karine, I just have to say congratulations on breaking multiple glass ceilings, and I hope as it gets cold in D.C., you use the fireplace in your office because it’s fabulous,” she said with a laugh.

Before taking over Megan’s seat on The View, Alyssa was the White House Director of Strategic Communications and the Assistant to former President Donald Trump during his 2020 administration.

Twitter erupted with posts from viewers who felt Alyssa’s comment showed her envy toward her guest’s position in the White House.

“Alyssa’s jealously just came through… you can tell she wishes she could’ve had Karine’s position for Trump…” one tweeted, with many others posting similar reactions to her remark.

“Alyssa always references the White House,” another added.
