“The View” co-host Joy Behar is apologizing after making a comment about a Christian organization connected to Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
Behar made the apology during the show on Tuesday.
“I have to clarify something I said yesterday. I want to correct something. I said on air when I stated that People of Praise had been deemed a hate group, I just got them mixed up with another group. It was inaccurate,” Behar said.
She added, “So I don’t think that’s right that I should – I have to say, you know, sorry about that … Anyway. I conflated them.”
Whoopi Goldberg responded, saying it is “easy to do.”
Watch her comments below:
Behar’s original remark about the group was made during the show on Monday.
“Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s religious faith is being called into question again. There are calls for her to recuse herself from a case which is about a web designer who wants to post a statement that she won’t design wedding websites for same-sex couples because it’s against her religious beliefs,” Behar said.
