‘The View’ Condemns LA Council President’s Racist Remarks

“The View” panel condemned former Democratic L.A. Council President Nury Martinez on Tuesday over her racist comments.

The panel criticized Martinez’s racist remarks released in leaked audio from an October 2021 meeting when she said a fellow councilman, who is white, raised his black son “like a little white kid” and compared him to a monkey.

“What do adults do when these kinds of things happen with little children? We put you in time out. You need to get out and let somebody in who can actually do the job without talking about stuff that has no effect for you. Get out,” co-host Whoopi Goldberg said.

The co-hosts all criticized that she made the remarks about a child, who was 2-years-old at the time. Co-host Ana Navarro said she is “mortified” that this incident revolves around members of the Latino community and called on the black and brown communities to unite.
