"Harris said, There is not a thing that comes to mind. In this moment, analysts said, Harris had tied herself inextricably with the economic hardships voters faced during the Biden administration and its other failings. Harris lost the election and returned to the show a year later to say, I realise now that I didn't fully appreciate how much of an issue it was."
"Daytime and late-night shows are usually required by a United States Communications Act rule that political candidates be given equal access to airtime, but The View may possibly have been an exemption because it could be seen as a bona fide news show, and those are exempt from that requirement. But in the last year, The View, Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Kimmel Live and other shows have been in the Federal Communications Commission's eye for not providing equal access and possibly providing partisan coverage."
Kamala Harris told Sunny Hostin on The View that 'There is not a thing that comes to mind,' a remark later cited as linking her to Biden-era economic hardships. Harris lost the election and likened the comment to pulling the pin on a hand grenade. Daytime and late-night shows are normally subject to a US Communications Act equal-access rule, though bona fide news programs may be exempt. The View and several entertainment shows drew Federal Communications Commission attention for possible unequal access and partisan coverage. Critics warn FCC enforcement combined with media consolidation could curtail speech and risk backsliding in media freedom; the FCC issued a public notice in late January about related concerns.
