Whoopi Goldberg has issued a challenge to Karoline Leavitt following an incident on the set of “The View.”

On February 14, 2025, Whoopi Goldberg attended the SNL50: The Homecoming Concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. A viral video circulating on X suggests that Goldberg left the set of ABC’s “The View” after a heated discussion with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. According to Newsweek, Goldberg returned to the show on February 24 after being absent for three episodes due to the flu, which she described as “awful.”

The video, which has garnered over two million views, claims that Goldberg walked off the set following a contentious debate with Leavitt. The narration of the video states that Leavitt appeared on a recent episode to discuss the “current state of American politics” and the younger generation’s engagement with the Republican Party, leading to a clash with Goldberg.

Text overlaying the video reads, “Whoopi Goldberg WALKS OFF The View During Explosive Debate With Caroline [sic] Leavitt.” The video is attributed to TikTok user @david.paul931, who has shared similar claims on their profile. However, this assertion is inaccurate. Leavitt is not scheduled to appear on “The View” from February 24 to 28, and she has never been a guest on the show throughout its 29 seasons, as per the Internet Movie Database.

Goldberg has not addressed this claim, and Check Your Fact found no credible news sources to substantiate it. In fact, Lead Stories debunked the claim on February 25.
