O'Donnell Not Likely to Speak with Hasselbeck

An O'Donnell/Hasselbeck resolution seems unlikely following O'Donnell's departure from "The View."

Now that Rosie O'Donnell has vacated her seat on ABC's The View, she seems to have no plans on speaking with The View's co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck, following their on air spat.

According to Forbes.com, "The former host of the ABC daytime chatfest says, in a video blog posted on her web site, that she has never tried harder to be friends with someone but she doesn't think she succeeded will Hasselbeck."

"I haven't spoken to her and I probably won't and I think it's just as well," O'Donnell said. "I wrote her an e-mail and she wrote me back, and there you have it."

Yet, the Chicago Sun-Times web site reports a different story, "On Tuesday's show, Hasselbeck said she and O'Donnell were 'in communication a lot' and that they're moving on 'in a very positive way.'" The web site went on to say, "Show creator and co-host Barbara Walters said Thursday she had been sending e-mails to O'Donnell and they remain 'close friends.' Walters also said O'Donnell is welcome back to The View as a panelist at anytime."
