Sunny Hostin, co-host of The View, frequently criticizes various forms of privilege, particularly those associated with wealth and race. She earns $2 million annually and lives luxuriously with her surgeon husband. Hostin has expressed approval when public figures acknowledge their "white privilege or male privilege." She also strongly believes in "pretty privilege," "white privilege," and "tall privilege." In 2019, Hostin condemned actress Felicity Huffman for seeking leniency in a college admissions scandal, citing Huffman’s wealth and privilege. However, Hostin's stance on privilege dramatically shifted when her own son was caught trespassing on railroad tracks. Hostin attempted to use her professional influence to prevent her son's arrest. She identified herself as a co-host of The View and a former federal prosecutor to the police. Hostin also highlighted her son's Harvard education and lack of criminal record. She emphasized his privilege by stating he was a Harvard graduate and teaches geometry to children. Despite her efforts, the police officers remained resolute in issuing a trespass violation. The author argues that Hostin's actions demonstrate hypocrisy, given her consistent public condemnation of privilege.
