The View’s Elisabeth Hasselbeck is Being Stalked?

According to reports, The View co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is being stalked by someone whose favorite pastime is calling in false allegations of poor parenting on behalf of Elisabeth Hasselbeck and her husband, Tim.  

The New York Daily News is reporting that an unknown woman “with a Southern twang” and claiming to be “a friend of the family” has phoned various agencies to make false and “creepy” allegations involving the Hasselbecks and their one-year-old daughter, Grace Elisabeth.

“In recent weeks, Elisabeth and her husband, Tim, have been stalked and harassed by an individual or individuals who seem to want to do them harm,” said Barbara Walters on Wednesday’s show. 

Walters went on to read a statement on behalf of the Hasselbeck family, which was kind of odd since Elisabeth was sitting right next to her:

“This is a malicious attempt to harass our family.These allegations have been fully reviewed by child protective authorities and medical professionals and found to be absolutely false. This matter has been turned over to the district attorney’s office for prosecution of the individual(s) responsible for the false accusation.”

This sucks because I’m sure Elisabeth & Tim are no Britney & Kevin.  But on the other hand, I’m sure Babs is thrilled.  No one has talked about The View this much since it first premiered.
