Comedian Kathy Griffin lamented during ABC’s The View on Thursday what she called “a double standard” because she had been canned by CNN after her infamous 2017 picture of her holding a fake decapitated head of then-President Donald Trump, yet the network kept its chief legal analyst, Jeffrey Toobin, following his masturbation scandal last year.
Until her firing in May 2017, Griffin had been a co-host of CNN’s New Year’s Eve coverage.
When asked by View guest co-host Ana Navarro for her reaction to Rep. Paul Gosar (R‑AZ) tweeting last month an anime video showing him killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D‑NY) and targeting President Joe Biden with two swords, Griffin did not directly answer the question.
