Is Star Jones Blackballed

But these days, Star Jones is trying to put that image behind her as she attempts to shape her post-"View" future."This is a new chapter, a new beginning. … Absolute new Star," she said Wednesday in a phone interview with The Associated Press. "

She announced in June she was leaving "The View" because ABC wasn’t renewing her contract, drawing the ire of show creator Barbara Walters when the announcement wasn’t planned in advance. At the time, ABC said it let Jones go because its research showed her weight loss and highly hyped wedding turned viewers off.

Reynolds hasn’t been seen much on TV since then, though she said she is producing a couple of specials for networks she would not disclose. (Sounds like none of them got picked up). I have a theory that she is BLACKBALLED in Hollywood. You don’t mess with Barbara WahWahlters, who is a respected veteran player in this industry. I personally could care less for Star Jones, any project she is working on, ideas, or problems.
