[See NewsBusters for more.] View co-host Joy Behar, who has a history of saying awful things she ends up regretting, had little sympathy for Kyle Kashuv, a Parkland shooting survivor who just had his acceptance to Harvard University revoked. The move by Harvard came in the wake of the revelation that, at age 16, Kashuv made racist and anti-Semitic comments in an online forum. Kashuv, unlike fellow survivor (and gun control activist) David Hogg, is a pro-Second Amendment supporter of the NRA. Discussing the teen on Tuesday’s show, the liberal Behar unleashed: “[People] say that young people do these kind of things, that they need to get a lesson. They need to take a lesson from this. Well, this is the lesson. The lesson is you're not getting into Harvard, okay? Take your gap year to contemplate your racism. That would be a productive year.”
