The View
In 2003, Hasselbeck was one of a number of women who guest-hosted to replace outgoing The View co-host Lisa Ling, who left the show at the end of 2002. Hasselbeck made it to the last few contenders, and was finally chosen by the other panelists (in a Survivor-style "Tribal Council") as the new co-host. Hasselbeck typically represents the conservative position on The View, defending creationism and the war on terror, and opposing euthanasia and abortion.
In 2008, AOL conducted a poll to ascertain public opinion towards various American talk show hosts. In question nine "Who is the worst interviewer?" the choices offered were Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Tyra Banks, Dr. Phil, Larry King and Meredith Vieira. 35% of the 1.35 million respondents chose Hasselbeck. Referencing the poll, Christina Kinon in a Daily News article reported that Hasselbeck is "considered the worst interviewer on television".
