Elisabeth Hasselbeck questioned the validity of #BlackLivesMatter on Fox and Friends August 31, asking if why the movement has not been classified a hate group.
The 38-year-old has once again come under fire from viewers, and her former colleague Rosie O'Donnell.
Rosie called out Elisabeth on Twitter for her views. Though her tweet sounded calm, the anger behind it was obvious.
“Why has the #BlackLivesMatter movement not been classified yet as a hate group?” Elisabeth asked commentator Kevin Jackson while discussing the death of a police deputy in Texas on August 28 by an African-American suspect. “I mean, how much more has to go in this direction before someone actually labels it as such?”
Jackson then replied: "Well they should do it, but unfortunately it's being financed by the leftists ... Ironically it's people that have nothing, really no concern at all about black lives."
Jackson also described Black Lives Matter as 'a stain on the nation'.
Both Hasselbeck and Jackson are known for their conservative beliefs.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck made the comments Monday during an interview with political Kevin Jackson over the Black Lives Matter demonstration at the Minnesota State Fair at the weekend, where marchers chanted in union against police: "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon."
The comments sparked a social media backlash, specifically against Hasselbeck.
Leading the charge was O'Donnell, who has a long history of feuding with Hasselbeck from their days working together on 'The View,' the show that added a major increase on Rosie O'Donnell's net worth.
Rosie took offense with Elisabeth’s words, and took to Twitter to blast the Fox News host for her diss. “Hasselbeck asked, ‘Kevin, why has the Black Lives Matter movement not been classified yet as a hate group? …’ some r slow 2 wake,” Rosie tweeted.

Rosie is clearly suggesting that Elisabeth is ignorant about what’s really going on with the movement, and doesn’t know what she’s talking about.
Before joining 'The View,' Rosie O'Donnell's net worth has already been growing ever since she got her first role in a film, 'A League of Their Own.'
Rosie O'Donnell's net worth grow while co-starring with the likes of Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Madonna.
After appearing in films, she decided to be a part of 'The View' and this is when Rosie O'Donnell's net worth really started skyrocketing.
Currently, Rosie O'Donnell's net worth is $120 million according to Celebrity Net Worth.
