The View’s Whoopi Goldberg forced to apologize live on air AGAIN after controversial comments and threat of legal action

THE View's Whoopi Goldberg has been forced to apologize on air after receiving legal threats related to controversial comments she made about a conservative student group.

The ABC show's co-host issued an apology to Turning Point USA on Thursday after she claimed the student group invited neo-Nazis to its conference in Florida last weekend.

“You know, in Monday’s conversation about Turning Point USA, I put the young people at the conference in the same category as the protesters outside,” Goldberg said during Thursday’s broadcast.

“I don’t like it when people make assumptions about me, and it’s not any better when I make assumptions about other people, which I did. So my bad. I’m sorry.”

Her comments came a day after Goldberg's co-host Sara Haines also apologized to TPUSA.

“On Monday we talked about the fact that there were openly neo-Nazi demonstrators outside the Florida Student Action Summit of the Turning Point USA group,” Haines said on the show.

“We want to make clear that these demonstrators were gathered outside the event and that they were not invited or endorsed by Turning Point USA," she continued.

“Also, Turning Point USA wanted us to clarify that this was a Turning Point USA Summit, and not a Republican Party event. So, we apologize for anything we said that may have been unclear on these points.”

After Haines read the statement, a Turning Point USA spokesperson told the group wanted an apology from Goldberg: “Whoopi (Goldberg) is the one who said it. She should be the one to offer the apology,” they said.

The group was referring to Monday’s episode, when Goldberg responded to a legal note from Haines, who read, “The conservative group Turning Point USA has condemned the group of neo-Nazis and said they have nothing to do with the organization.”

Goldberg replied, “But you let them in. You let them in and you knew what they were, so you were complicit.”

She later tried clarifying her comment by explaining that the neo-Nazis were “outside protestors” and that her “point was metaphorical” because they “were not in the building” where the summit was being held.

Goldberg's comments led to Turning Point USA issuing a scathing cease and desist letter to ABC News on Tuesday, calling for the Disney-owned company to "retract the defamatory statements" made earlier this week on " or face legal action.

Goldberg's co-host Joy Behar also participated in criticizing TPUSA.

"Neo-Nazis were out there in the front of the conference with anti-Semitic slurs and, you know, the Nazi swastika and a picture of a so-called Jewish person with exaggerated features, just like Goebbels did during the Third Reich. It’s the same thing, right out of that same playbook,” Behar said.
