I don't see what's the big deal.

I don't watch the View religiously but as I recall, she basically solicited vendors to provide free stuff for her wedding in exchange for having the items on the show (i.e. free advertising for the vendor and free stuff for Ms. Jones). I guess it just left a bad taste in some people's mouths because they felt as though she was blantantly using her celebrity to get free stuff. I think it's a bit tacky, but apparently the View viewers and the ABC/View ppl thought it was a big deal.
