The View’s Whoopi Goldberg has shut down a tense on-air clash with co-host Sunny Hostin..The reason has been revealed.

Whoopi Goldberg was forced to reprimand her cohost, Sunny Hostin, during Wednesday’s episode of The View as a political debate turned rather tense.

Hostin, 56, was sharing her views on Donald Trump’s decision to nominate WWE billionaire Linda McMahon as U.S. education secretary, when she and Alyssa Farah Griffin became locked in a war of words.

Referring to the voucher system, Hostin claimed: ‘What happens with vouchers, the studies show very clearly that they fund students already attending private schools.

So people with money, get those vouchers, use the vouchers to pay less for their private schools and their kids go on to do well.

‘Where do you get the money from vouchers? You pull those money from the poor schools,’ she continued as Farah, 35, butted in and tried to say: ‘See, I don’t see it…’ as Hostin fired back: ‘Let me just finish this.

‘So, wealthy families are overwhelmingly the recipients of school voucher tax credits, I’m not making this up, this has been studied,’ she went on before Farah grilled her: ‘Who is that cited?’

‘A 2020 study found that only about half of states with voucher programs required teachers to have a bachelor’s degree, required teachers to have training, required teachers to have licensing,’ Hostin continued, as Farah Griffin butted in again and said condescendingly: ‘If I may get in just to make it a conversation.’

As Hostin carried on reading out statistics, former White House aide Farah Griffin continued talking over her and pointed out: ‘I went to public school, I believe you went to public school… you got to go to private school.’
