Whoopi Goldberg revealed to PageSix that her very opinionated Republican co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck, gets more death threats than anyone else on the show, The View. Whoopi was part of a discussion panel at Cooper Union, a panel discussion on Art and Educational Justice hosted by the Stella Adler Studio with Rosie Perez, Phylicia Rashad and Anna Deavere Smith. I'm a little surprised that Elisabeth receives the most death threats.. is it normal to receive death threats?

Whoopi made this statement about her relationship with Elisabeth:
"Politically we could not be more opposite, but I respect her tremendously. Truth is, we could not have a dialogue without Elizabeth. It's not that we have to agree, the important thing is that we have the conversation."

On The View today Whoopi talked about her friend Patrick Swayze's pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

Interesting, she says she got the job in "Ghost" because he told the director that he wouldn't take the part unless they hired Whoopi, whom he did not know personally at the time.
