That might explain the hostesses' attitudes towards it.

I don't know anything, it's just a guess.
I actually looked this up because as a journalism major, the idea that ALL media entities are owned by less than 5 major companies interests me.

"Pledged" was published by Hyperion Books, Inc. which is indeed owned by Disney-the parent company of ABC.

The ladies on "The View" may have been passive to not anger their bosses at Disney.
