July will be all Me-Me-Me McCAIN's, daily testimonials & her trophy acceptance speeches

PREFACE: I think this Group is appropriate for this topic, if not please allow me the opportunity to Self-Delete without a Mark of Cain. However, please, if somebody doesn't like this topic, please skip past it to the thousands of other threads without posts like: "I never watch that show; change the channel; (or the ever popular: ) YOU ARE AN IDIOT AND A WINGNUT." Also, cf., Footnotes 1 & 2. Tia.

*** Now to the topic: Yeah, this rationale makes more sense, that the change of network boss away from one who protected her, instead of her own cover story about wanting to be with her wingnut spouse and to watch her kid's first step in D.C., not in NYC.

But for sure, it will be the entire month of gushing farewells and video accolades. When she made her earth shaking announcement of getting out of Dodge she sounded like she was giving an acceptance speech for an Oscar or a Nobel.

Meghan McCain was ‘miserable’ at ‘vicious’ ‘The View’

.... “[McCain] no longer had the climate of protection she had under [former ABC News president] James Goldston,” one insider said. “When he was there, there was this sense of retribution if you didn’t get along with Meghan. She would act out, yell at the audience, guests, and fight with her co-hosts [on-air], but there was never an ‘OK, you have to get along with your co-hosts.”

Another source added: “The onus was always on them to get along with her and put up with her bulls–t.”

When Kim Godwin was named president of ABC News in April, we’re told she took a “no-nonsense” approach in shaping up the show. ....

Despite buzz that McCain — the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain — was getting pushed out, multiple sources told us that she ultimately decided to leave. And despite the hosts’ chummy on-air goodbye, multiple sources and insiders maintain the ladies “hate each other.”
