Soon-to-be HLN host Joy Behar gave some insight into what she envisions for her show, in an interview with HuffPost’s Danny Shea.
“I don’t want to do just a liberal show,” she said. “I interviewed Ann Coulter when I was sitting in for Larry King a couple of times, and we have a rapport. I like to talk to her. I think it’s interesting to me to talk to people who don’t agree with me all the time. Rush Limbaugh, let’s get him on the show! Even Dick Cheney is welcome on my show. I’ll have a faucet ready for him but he can come.”
And how about big interview of the day, Gov. Sarah Palin? “I’d love to have Sarah Palin on the show,” Behar said. “She would do very well with me, because I’m not out to get Sarah Palin.”
She also said King called her “as soon as he heard and congratulated me,” but the 9pmET ratings leader Sean Hannity “hasn’t called. “He doesn’t call, he doesn’t send me an email — what’s up with that?” she said.
