Breaking News: Whoopi Goldberg and Soccer Star Megan Rapinoe Announce Their Intention to Leave America: “We are DONE with…” See More…

Former soccer star Megan Rapinoe and television co-host Whoopi Goldberg were kicked off the daytime talk show “The View” after a heated and tense exchange.

On Dec. 3, 2023, a Facebook post shared an article from SpaceXMania claiming that former soccer star Megan Rapinoe and television co-host Whoopi Goldberg were kicked off the daytime talk show “The View” after a heated exchange.

The article, which had been published months prior in August 2023, stated that Goldberg’s decision to invite Rapinoe on the show was “controversial”:

The conversation started on a tense note, with Whoopi Goldberg addressing Rapinoe’s missed penalty kick as a turning point in the game. The interview took a contentious turn when Goldberg pressed Rapinoe about her often polarizing statements on American values and her choice to kneel during the national anthem as a form of protest. The tension between the two escalated as Rapinoe defended her actions, citing them as a means to draw attention to issues she believes need addressing.

As the debate grew increasingly heated, the audience and viewers at home were caught in a whirlwind of emotions. The normally composed and articulate hosts of “The View” struggled to maintain control of the conversation as Rapinoe and Goldberg clashed over matters of patriotism, activism, and the responsibility of public figures to represent their country.

It was during this tumultuous exchange that sources allege the network executives made a swift decision to remove both Megan Rapinoe and Whoopi Goldberg from the show. While the specific details of their departure remain shrouded in mystery, reports suggest that the decision was made in the interest of maintaining the show’s integrity and providing a balanced and respectful platform for discussing important topics.

This article was presented as a work of satire and originated from a website that describes its content as such.

A small number of online commentators assumed the story was real, nonetheless. One comment on the Facebook post read, “Great job getting them out!”
