Most prominent was Michael J. Fox, who had been a guest in the first week of the ABC chatfest. It has been 19 years since Fox announced that he has Parkinson’s disease. “I still have it, but it doesn’t have me yet,” Fox told the women of “The View” this morning.
Sherri Shepherd highlighted that Fox’s foundation has raised $200 million for research. Barbara Walters recalled that she had been with Fox when he made his Parkinson’s announcement. He saluted her standing as the journalist to talk to about major issues — words that left her speechless.
The celebration came packed with memorable clips that have helped the show become a cultural institution. In a brief clip, Meredith Vieira, the show’s first moderator, said she was proud to be part of “View” history. Tina Fey dropped in to talk about how she had used “The View” to make comedy on “Saturday Night Live.”
