Stupidity on The View

By Ed Brayton

pPZ posted this video and I'm going to do so as well just because it's such a perfect example of the daily stupidity on that show. They're talking -- ignorantly -- about evolution. I mentioned my hatred of The View once and had a woman conclude that I just hate the idea of women giving their viewpoints. Well no, I just have no patience for people giving idiotic viewpoints (and her presumption was every bit as idiotic as this clip). /p pI would love to see a TV show with an intelligent, well-educated group of women. Give me a show with Virginia Postrel, Jan Crawford Greenburg, Camille Paglia and Elena Kagan on it and I'd be glued to it. But Joy Behar? Elizabeth Hasselbeck? Rosie O'Donnell (yes, I know she left the show)? I'd rather be tied to an anthill covered in honey to watch such vapid nobodies offer opinions on any subject. /p a href="http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2008/12/stupidity_on_the_view.php"Read the rest of this post.../a | a href="http://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2008/12/stupidity_on_the_view.php#commentsArea"Read the comments on this post.../aimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/scienceblogs/dispatches/~4/488712849" height="1" width="1"/
