The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.LOS ANGELES — For six seasons on her '90s daytime talk show, Rosie O'Donnell spoke openly about the struggles associated with her childhood.
In an upcoming book,"Ladies Who Punch: The Explosive Inside Story of 'The View'" by Variety's New York bureau chief Ramin Setoodeh, O'Donnell talks publicly for the first time about another dark aspect of her youth. O'Donnell says she was sexually abused by her father, Edward Joseph."It started very young," O'Donnell tells Setoodeh."And then when my mother died, it sort of ended in a weird way, because then he was with these five children to take care of. On the whole, it's not something I like to talk about. Of course, it changes everyone.
The details about her father appear in a chapter about"The Rosie O'Donnell Show," which aired from 1996 to 2002, and changed the daytime TV landscape with its focus on celebrity interviews and pop culture. O'Donnell later became more political when she appeared on"The View" for almost two seasons. She replaced Meredith Vieira as the show's moderator for one year in 2006-07.
