I think that's what we're saying.” Goldberg's remarks come as she faces backlash from grocery store owners for calling them “pigs.” “Your pocketbook is bad, not because the Bidens did anything. In a letter addressed to The View's executive producer Brian Teta, NGA chief executive Greg Ferrara slammed the co-host, saying, “We are deeply troubled by these remarks … referring to people who own grocery stores as ‘pigs.’” “Statements that falsely depict grocers as ‘gouging’ not only exacerbate these tensions but also risk further harm to these frontline workers who have continued to serve the public through challenging times,” Ferrara added.
