Insiders insisted that her apology wasn’t enough and demanded that she be fired.  Sources told ''Page Six'' that staffers and fellow hosts on “The View,” as well as insiders at [[Disney]], were furious.<ref>Emily Smith, [https://pagesix.com/2022/02/01/whoopi-goldberg-should-be-fired-say-abc-insiders/ Whoopi Goldberg ‘is in deep s–t’ and should be fired, ABC insiders claim], ''Page Six'', Feb 1, 2022</ref>  “ABC staffers and Disney Network execs are saying Whoopi went way too far. And board members are not happy with her apology and want a fuller retraction. The word is that Whoopi is in ‘deep s–t,’” said one ABC insider.  “Why does Whoopi seemingly get a pass when others don’t? Perhaps this time she won’t. Many at the network — including her fellow hosts — believe Whoopi is too controversial now for the show.”  The insider said the situation “isn’t just going to blow over.”  Other daytime talk show hosts, like Sharon Osbourne, have previously been fired for arguably far less.  “The View” hosts are allegedly up in arms over Goldberg’s controversial comments.
