Disney boss Bob Iger, ABC exec asked 'The View' hosts to cool it on politics: report

As the outlet reported, "Karamehmedovic convened a meeting with The View's executive producer Brian Teta and its hosts, and suggested the panel needed to broaden its conversations beyond its predominant focus on politics."

The ABC News president pointed to successful, less political segments with famous guests and suggested the co-hosts focus on this kind of content. 

The sources stated that Navarro and her colleagues found the request "silly" and insisted they were going to "keep doing their thing."

They also spoke of a conversation that Navarro had with Iger during an event last week held by the ABC parent company intended to woo new advertisers.

The request was reportedly the cause of morale being "low" on set at the time. 

One of The Daily Beast's sources noted that ABC will "constantly have conversations with talent based on viewer feedback," noting that this latest instance with Iger and Karamehmedovic is "no different."

A spokesperson for ABC News declined to comment for this story. Representatives from Disney did not immediately reply to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
