Conservative Host Jedediah Bila Leaving ‘The View’

If you thought “The View” was bad now, just wait until it loses its ostensibly conservative host.

Jedediah Bila announced this morning that she plans to leave the gossipy show. According to Page Six, “Bila, 38, joined the show as a permanent co-host for the show’s 20th season, after appearing as a guest during the prior season.”

Bila did not provide a reason for her departure. She only thanked the viewers. Watch:

With Bila out, the show is hosted entirely by liberals. She wasn’t perfect, but compared to her fellow hosts like Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar, she was a hardline right-winger. Many times, she was the only voice of reason during debate:

I doubt any Trump voters actually watch The View. Even so, it was nice knowing the show featured at least one non-hysterical voice not clamoring for Trump’s impeachment.

Bila is working on a book and other future projects, which may have influenced her decision to leave. I have a different theory: She’s simply fed-up with the anti-Trump voices who dominate the show. I don’t blame her at all for getting out.

Fans of Bila wished her well Twitter:

The rumor is that former Fox News contributor Meghan McCain could replace Bila. CNN reports that she is in talks to join the show. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if it happens.

What do you think? Are you sad Bila is leaving The View? Will you watch if Meghan McCain replaces her? Tell us your thoughts below, and share this story on Facebook and Twitter!
