Harris Faulkner Breaks Her Silence After Crushing The View in Ratings — and Reveals Painful Details of Past On-Air Ambush
In a dramatic new twist in the ongoing media turf war, Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner has opened up about her network’s shocking victory over The View — and the painful personal moment that still haunts her from her time on the ABC talk show.
Faulkner, 59, isn’t mincing words after her show, The Faulkner Focus, edged out The View in January ratings, drawing over 40,000 more viewers. The veteran journalist called out the rival program for its “vitriol,” lack of serious journalism, and the explosive tactics that blindsided her during her 2018 guest appearance.
“There’s this sort of ‘shout it, cuss it, do whatever you gotta do’ attitude on The View,” Faulkner told the Daily Mail. “But what is the show now, besides just talk, talk, talk — and a lot of combativeness?”
But the real fire came when Faulkner called out co-host Sunny Hostin by name, labeling a segment from her appearance “dicey” and deeply personal.
Faulkner recalled a moment where, while promoting her book on The View, producers projected a photo of her biracial daughters behind her. That’s when Hostin — a fellow woman of color — veered the conversation into racial territory, questioning Faulkner’s “responsibility to the Black community.”
“I knew my kids would be watching,” Faulkner said. “Sunny Hostin came after me.”
The moment was jarring not just for Faulkner but for viewers, many of whom later noted how Whoopi Goldberg stepped in to change the subject back to her book.
Faulkner, who is married to Tony Berlin, a white media executive, has long navigated complicated public conversations around race, identity, and politics. But she said The View’s ambush crossed a line.
She also didn’t hold back when criticizing The View’s editorial approach, comparing it to Fox News’ live format, which she called a “superpower” that allows for real-time accountability. In contrast, The View is taped in advance and edited.
“There’s a myopic lens through which they see the world,” Faulkner said. “They do bring on guests with opposing views, but the shouting always comes from the left.”
Faulkner, who joined Fox News in 2005, is one of the few Black women to anchor a daily cable news program. In addition to hosting The Faulkner Focus, she recently celebrated 10 years of co-hosting Outnumbered, making her one of the most prominent women at Fox.
Her recent ratings win over The View is seen as a symbolic and strategic victory — one that could shake up daytime television dynamics for good.
And while Faulkner says she’s moved on, her words suggest she hasn’t forgotten what happened — and neither have her viewers.
