Elisabeth is full of great parenting advice - once said that if she ever caught her daughter touching herself "down there" she would grab her hand away and smack it. :

So, could someone who is watching this make a list of the advertisers, and then maybe we can organize a letter-writing campaign?

When I caught my daughter touching herself "down there" I taught her the word clitoris. Then again, I never won Survivor or anything, so what do I know.

Rosie's partner is also at fault for allowing herself to be forced to stop. WTF? : Get a spine woman!!! No one forces me to do anything. :

The guest was a sex advice lady who was talking about this stuff! She tried to correct Elisabeth and said what a horrific complex she was going to give her daughter and Elisabeth said she didn't care and that there were also the germs to consider. And did she win Survivor? For some reason I didn't think she did.

I'm very disappointed in The View now and won't be watching again. This isn't the first time the ladies on the show have been completely ugly about the subject of nursing (without even researching the subject it seems because formula is not, and will NEVER, be as good as breast milk.) Part of me wonders if you want another nurse-in for the ratings boost. I sincerely hope that nursing mothers everywhere don't take the bait.
exactly. (though i wont tell them i stopped watching it last year, LOL) and you are ebing so nice by calling them ladies...

yup.

I'm a Disney shareholder, though. Perhaps I should write a shareholder letter to Disney and ABC complaining about The View and asking them to take it off the air or present some more balanced information.

Or I'll sell my shares and watch CBS!!!!!

there's and excellent idea! YOU HAVE MORE CLOUTAS A SHAREHOLDER THAN ANY OF "HORMONAL GRANOLAHEADS" , lol

curlyfry, your letter rocked. short, sweet, to the point.

Since clearly, they think a nurse-in & writing campaign is just a bunch of hormonal granola-heads doing them an advertising service. I'd much rather hit them where it hurts, with low ratings & sponsor pull-outs.
i say noi more nurse-ins for them, they don't deserve thje extyra exposure imo.

I don't think Elisabeth won Survivor. Also, germs to consider? Just make sure you wash her hands after she's done, it's simple.

She was on "The Look for Less" and designed shoes, that makes her an expert in EVERYTHING, didn't you know that?

I stopped watching The View after Star's original anti-breastfeeding comments.

I read a quote from Rosie a while back saying that she effectively pressured her partner to stop nursing after a few weeks because she didn't feel equal in the parenting, or something to that effect. It's all about her, you know. Not that hungry little baby. Basically they replaced stupid Star with selfish Rosie. No better, really.

I figure if I want to watch ignorant people spout off stupidities on television and get paid for it, I can always watch Jerry Springer. And at least that would be more entertaining.
