The Lawsuit Alleging Fraud by Sunny Hostin’s Husband
Sunny Hostin, co-host of The View, is under scrutiny after her husband, Dr. Emmanuel “Manny” Hostin, was named in a $459 million RICO lawsuit.

Fox News Contributor’s Stinging Remarks
The controversy reached a new peak when Fox News contributor Joe Concha mocked Sunny on-air, highlighting her outspoken stance on legal and ethical issues while remaining silent about her husband’s legal troubles.
Concha warned that more evidence against Manny Hostin might emerge, adding, “Sunny will look more foolish when she lectures others about ethics on The View.” Critics have labeled her silence on the matter hypocritical, given her frequent commentary on high-profile legal scandals.

Impact on Sunny Hostin and The View
While critics have pounced on the controversy, media experts suggest the case may not significantly impact Sunny Hostin’s role at ABC or The View. Cornell Law School professor William A. Jacobson noted that the allegations against Dr. Hostin are separate from Sunny’s ability to provide opinions on legal matters.
ABC News has not commented on the matter, and Hostin herself has avoided addressing the lawsuit on The View. However, her past remarks about insurance fraud have resurfaced, fueling public debate over her credibility.
