This story of "market research " being the reason for her exit seems so fishy, I think Queen Barbara (lol) was sick of her. From clips Ive seen of the View online, its gotten to a point on the show where this underling was cutting Barbara off and talking over her, a big contrast from when I last legitimately watched this show in the last of Star Jones and Rosie's entrance & exit days.

Elisabeth should have been fired early on when she equated Gay marriage to bestiality.

On a side note I also think maybe Elisabeth Hasselbeck's marriage is over and she doesn't want to be on television waving the all too familiar hypocritical family values flag every week, while being divorced. I mean evey time the Hot Topic covered a notable person that wandered from a marriage and cheated, Elisabeth would become extremely vocal in disdain for the cheater, as if she had a familiar background in this department.
