Description

As a legendary former talk show host, Rosie O'Donnell redefined the format for a new audience and became an icon. But over the years, after her tenure on The View and more than a few public feuds, her legacy was somewhat tarnished. Together, Sarah and Sadaf look at why this is a woman who has always deserved more and how she became the butt of so many jokes.
