On Monday, Whoopi Goldberg got so mad at the New York Times ‘ article about black Oscar winners that she bellowed about it on her bellowing hour, The View . Writers Manohla Dargis and A.O. Scott didn’t mention her Oscar win for Ghost , which prompted Goldberg to call their work “shoddy’ and imply that the article should have been more about the bellow-filled career of Whoopi Goldberg.

Goldberg realized this today and apologized in a hilariously half-hearted way.
