NEW YORK, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- "The View" executive producer Bill Geddie says a report claiming Jenny McCarthy may soon be fired from the New York chat show is "ridiculous."

"No. No, there's no truth. It's ridiculous. There's nothing to it," Geddie told TMZ Wednesday.

RadarOnline.com reported Tuesday McCarthy's job is danger because viewers don't like her.

McCarthy joined Barbara Walters, Whoopi Godlberg and Sherri Shepherd on the daytime program last month, following the departures of longtime co-hosts Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

Walters didn't directly address the RadarOnline.com report on Wednesday's edition of "The View," but she did tell McCarthy on-camera, "You brighten up the show and we love you."

McCarthy replied, "I'm happy to be here."
