THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER

National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards Finalist, Best Non-Fiction Book

The gossipy real-life soap opera behind a serious show.

When Barbara Walters launched The View, network executives told her that hosting it would tarnish her reputation. Instead, within ten years, she'd revolutionized morning TV and made household names of her co-hosts: Joy Behar, Star Jones, Meredith Vieira and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. But the daily chatfest didn't just comment on the news. It became the news. And the headlines barely scratched the surface.

Based on unprecedented access, including stunning interviews with nearly every host, award-winning journalist Ramin Setoodeh takes you backstage where the stars really spoke their minds. Here's the full story of how Star, then Rosie, then Whoopi tried to take over the show, while Barbara struggled to maintain control of it all, a modern-day Lear with her media-savvy daughters. You'll read about how so many co-hosts had a tough time fitting in, suffered humiliations at the table, then pushed themselves away, feeling betrayed--one nearly quitting during a commercial. Meanwhile, the director was being driven insane, especially by Rosie.

Setoodeh uncovers the truth about Star's weight loss and wedding madness. Rosie's feud with Trump. Whoopi's toxic relationship with Rosie. Barbara's difficulty stepping away. Plus, all the unseen hugs, snubs, tears--and one dead rodent.

Ladies Who Punch shows why The View can be mimicked and mocked, but it can never be matched.

Best dog toys
Color: 5 Pack Corduroy, Color: 5 Pack Corduroy
These are hands down the best dog toys. My dog loves to play fetch and tug with them and they hold up. They obviously don’t last forever but every other toy brand (bark and kong) tear within one play session and cost double the price. Like I said, they won’t last forever but they have been the most durable and fun toys for my dog to play with.

Good for smaller dog
Color: 5 Pack Corduroy
It is certainly a dog toy. If you couldn’t tell by the pictures they are easy to tear.

Love this assortment of fun plush dog toys!
Color: 5 Pack Corduroy
My Yorkshire terrier just turned a year old, and this assortment of plush toys was his b-day gift. They have been a hit! We both like the soft, corduroy-like fabric and squeakers. Though the description says that these are good for medium or large dogs, I'd say they are a good size for small to medium-sized dogs. He's a 4-lb dog, and I'd say that these are a good size for him. My sister's 14-lb Shorkie has the purple dinosaur, and it's been his favorite toy since he took it from a dog sitter 2.5 years ago. He can usually tear soft toys up in 1-2 days. My little guy tears up some soft plush toys in 5-7 days. He's had these for a week now, and so far, so good. They appear to be sturdy. Time will tell… Loving them so far!

Sturdy and cute
Color: 5 Pack Corduroy
I have a husky mix puppy, 6 mos. It’s been about a month now and though a few are a little tattered and one has a squeaker that is almost dead ; they are all whole ! This is with her playing with them all day everyday. They are super cute too. Would buy again
