Joy Behar likes to talk.
Aired March 28, 2010.
Joy Behar, a comedian and talk show host, shares her views on various topics such as politics, social issues, and prejudice in an interview with Russ Mitchell. Behar is known for her liberal opinions, and her views sometimes lead to heated debates with her co-hosts. Behar believes that being a "fundit" (someone who has a keen interest in politics and social issues and incorporates them into their work) is important, and her Italian-American family instilled in her the values of open-mindedness and tolerance. She also talks about her childhood experiences listening to conversations at wakes and how they influenced her comic sensibility.
