Whoopi Goldberg Gives Her Side of Jeanine Pirro Spat: She Called Us All a Word I Can't Say on TV

'C**ksuckers!' How Jeanine Pirro lashed out at View hosts and threw mic pack at crew member before Whoopi Goldberg told her to 'get the f*** out' - but Fox News host says SHE is victim of abuse

Judge Jeanine Pirro called Whoopi Goldberg and her View co-hosts 'c**ksuckers' on Thursday, a production source tells DailyMail.com

Pirro also allegedly tore off her microphone pack and threw it at a crew member said Goldberg, who confessed to telling the Fox News host to 'get the f*** out'

'I've been a prosecutor, judge, DA for 30 years. I tried murder cases. I can go toe-to-toe anybody. That was abuse,' said Pirro in her telling of the incident on Friday

She did not mention swearing at the co-hosts, security or the people who book the show as Goldberg said she did, saying the audience witnessed part of that

'It was a sad moment that you know, she was triggered,' added Pirro of Goldberg

Goldberg said that backstage, Pirro walked right up to her backstage and said: 'I've done more for victims than you ever will'

I don't know about you guys and gals, but I am inclined to believe Whoopi Goldberg over a known liar.

Pirro was playing to her base. However Goldberg responded, Pirro would have ramped up the confrontation until she got the response she wanted.

On edit:
I would have preferred an outcome where Whoopi stays calm, calls 911, and as EMTs are transporting an incoherently hysterical Pirro away, shakes her head and says, “That poor woman.”

She probably had some zingers to throw at Joy. I suspect Joy did not want to be there because she’d have trouble saying silent. And the fact Pirro was angry that Ana Navarro was there shows us what a coward she really is. I was so proud Whoopi pushed back.
