Bethenny Frankel News 2014: 'SkinnyGirl' Mogul Gets Schooled By Kathy Griffin At The Daytime Emmy Awards [VIDEO]
It looks as though Bethenny Frankel is having one very tough year. Not only is she dealing with her divorce battle with her soon-to-be ex-husband Jason Hoppy, but she's also seen her daytime talk show, Bethenny, canceled and now she is being publicly humiliated by comedian Kathy Griffin.

The funny woman let it be known that she is no fan of Frankel as she slammed her during her opening monologue at the Daytime Emmy Awards this past weekend.
Griffin talked about Frankel not wanting to be at the awards ceremony last year and how she was desperate to leave as soon as possible. "She did not want to be there at all," Griffin recalled. "She kept saying, 'I'm on the D-list like you.'"

And while Griffin says that she loved every minute she spent at the awards show last year while mingling with other stars, Frankel wasn't as excited about the experience. "She spent the whole evening asking, 'Can I go to the airport?'" Griffin said while adding, "I was thrilled to be there."
Meanwhile, there have also been rumors that suggest Frankel might become the "next Barbara Walters."
According to reports the ABC Network is looking to replace Walters with someone who will be able to mix well with the rest of the cast while still give the show a ratings boost. A source tells Naughty But Nice Rob, "The View is looking for someone to spice up the show. Someone with lots of opinions and a big personality and Bethenny is at the top of the list."
Unfortunately for Frankel's fans though, it doesn't look like that's about to happen, yet. A rep for The View tells RumorFix about the rumors, "This is incorrect on a couple of counts. There is no truth to this. Also, you cannot replace an icon like Barbara Walters and that's not what we are looking to do. However, we will at some point in the near future add a new voice to the panel."
