The protest by a climate activist who smeared cake on the Mona Lisa’s protective case divided co-hosts on Tuesday’s edition of “The View” – with panelist Sunny Hostin among those who argued the stunt achieved its goal by sparking conversation about the environment.

Reports said the man initially tried to smash the bulletproof case. “I think they work. We’re talking about it,” Hostin said. “I think climate change is something that we ignore so much, not only in this country but around the world. Obviously we’re talking about this issue.” But “View” guest-host Tara Setmayer slammed the protest as “asinine” and said the man had failed to achieve his goal. “We’re talking about the fact that he smeared, he defaced the Mona Lisa.

Image
After seven weeks of postseason basketball, the Celtics-Warriors 2022 NBA Finals is set and will begin Thursday in San Francisco’s Chase Center. What’s another four days. Adam Silver’s tournament has been an endless journey with too many blowouts, too many injuries and too many “play-in’’ rounds. Even lead broadcaster Mike Breen didn’t make it all the way – sidelined by COVID-19 that forced him to miss the Celtics’ Game 7 100-96 road triumph Sunday in Miami.
