"One of the topics that we discussed was your admission that you viewed other women - in a very male-dominated field, and we know that, the news business - as your competition," said Hostin. Sunny Hostin, with "Going There" splayed open on the table, noted that she did find the book "provocative," as it challenges Couric's "girl next door" persona. And the book is doing really well, and it isn't even out yet. "The good news is, it's getting a lot of attention, and people seem really interested. "I didn't think it was that provocative," she said, suggesting that her critics haven't read the book. Whoopi Goldberg began the wide-ranging interview by joking that Couric's memoir "really has people going in circles," but the former morning show star didn't quite pick up the humor in Goldberg's statement. "And then, sure enough, this is what is spun." "I talk about how the 'catfight' narrative is like catnip to the media," she said. The co-hosts grilled Couric about her "unvarnished" tell-all memoir, "Going There," forcing their guest to play defense as she insisted her words have been "distorted, cherry-picked, twisted, and rewritten" by the media. After two weeks of previewing their interview with Katie Couric, the women of The View finally got a chance to sit down with the Today anchor, and they didn't hold back.
