The hosts of The View have fired back after Elon Musk openly criticized their show, calling it “a meeting place for ignorant women.” Musk’s remark, which quickly spread across social media, sparked intense reactions from both supporters and critics. The outspoken panel, known for addressing controversial topics, wasted no time responding.

During a heated segment, the hosts dismissed Musk’s comments as baseless and misogynistic.
