The View co-host Joy Behar is embroiled in a bitter Twitter battle with actress Kirstie Alley.
Kirstie Alley became inexplicably enraged over Joy Behar's continuing coverage of the Tiger Woods scandal as part of The Joy Behar Show. Alley posted the following messages on her Twitter page:
"Cheating is between a husband and wife. Not TMZ and Joy Bewhore. God, I want to bash her in the vagina with her microphone. Why has Joy Behar turned into such a self righteous cooz head?
Joy Behar has made no secret of the fact that The Joy Behar Show has gotten major mileage out of the Tiger Woods story.

During The View's three straight weeks of Tiger Woods scandal coverage in their "Hot Topics" segments, Joy Behar admitted that the trends dictate what topics get debated on The Joy Behar Show. On the December 17th, 2009 episode of The View, Behar told her co-hosts:
“On my other show, if we drop Tiger we’re in trouble. That’s what people want to hear about—on that show, on my show. Every night we’re like, let’s find a new angle—now it’s about infidelity, now it’s about the Accenture dropping him, now it’s about the wife leaving. Every single night.”
Joy Behar then compared the Tiger Woods scandal to a "soap opera" that people just can't get enough of.
Behar doesn't seem too ruffled by Kirstie Alley's Twitter bomb. She responded with a message on her own Twitter page reading: "Kirstie Alley calls me Joy Bewhore. Compliments! Compliments!"

I love when adult celebrities act like 13-year-olds.
It's ironic because the only topic ever mentioned about Kirstie Alley is her weight. It's the only reason she's still famous. Thank you Joy for not stooping down to her level.
joy is so sanctimonious. I love when she discusses politics. The only problem is she should read up on the topics she is discussing. Everytime she opens her mouth she shows how dumb she is. I quit watching the view and I will not watch her show. Her mouth is her worse enemy.
