No, Candace Owens is not set to host an ABC talk show - Poynter
ABC’s daytime talk show, “The View,” is on a summer hiatus after wrapping its 27th season. But it will not be replaced by a talk show from controversial conservative commentator Candace Owens, who has faced repeated criticism for making antisemitic remarks.
“Candace Owens Signs $25 Million Deal With ABC For A Morning Show,” a Facebook post says. “It’s Going to Replace The View.”
The news originated on SpaceXMania, a satirical news site, which labeled the story as satire. The site describes itself as bringing “the freshest fake news, some sassy analysis, and a good dose of satire.”
“The View” posted on its official Instagram account that its 28th season will premiere in September. ABC has not made an announcement that Owens will be headlining a talk show. We also were unable to find any credible media reports supporting the claim.
An ABC spokesperson declined to comment on the claim.
We rate the claim that Candace Owens will host an ABC morning show that will replace “The View” False.

Talks are well underway in preparation for the next major international meeting on climate change, 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28), scheduled to begin Nov. 30 in the United Arab Emirates.
Much like last year’s COP27, finances — specifically, aid to developing nations — will be at the center of conference deliberations.
The conference faces an even greater sense of urgency brought on by the Sept. 8, 2023, release of the first global stocktake, which calls for accelerated action to meet the goals set in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement (COP21).
