Elisabeth Hasselbeck has almost left 'The View & # 39; in 2013 after being scolded on the air

In the segment that preceded the recently unearthed audio, Hasselbeck and the rest of the table debated the use of the so-called morning-after pill. At the time, the FDA was considering a proposal to allow the drug to be available without a prescription.

The conversation is interrupted when Walters, who retired as a full-time co-organizer in 2014, calls for peace.

"We need to continue and learn to discuss these things in a rational way," she says.

In the new clip, Hasselbeck, who rips his note card before the commercial break, can be heard in a profane way and complain to co-host Joy Behar.

"I will not stay there and be scolded on the air," she says. "What's the f — … this woman drives me crazy"

Hasselbeck rushes and declares that she leaves the series.

Executive producer Bill Geddie returns Hasselbeck, saying, "You're a professional, you have to go back there."

Hasselbeck returns to his place with a few seconds to spare.

"Yes, there were times when I was very humanly responsive – I used a bad word when I was frustrated," she wrote in part. "I was pregnant with Taylor and a great conversation about the value and life of unborn children took place at the View … I still have all my rights to freedom of faith protected by the Constitution: but now : I can hold the hand of the person who does not agree at the same time. "

In 2013, the US Food and Drug Administration approved the availability of the One-Step Plan B Emergency contraceptive pill without a prescription for women 15 years and older.
