The View's resident conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who often bangs heads with her liberal co-hosts, is denying reports she's leaving The View for a position at Fox News Channel.

"While Elisabeth [Hasselbeck] has a great relationship with Fox News, there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that she is leaving The View," her agent said in a statement on Thursday. "Elisabeth is passionate in her beliefs and enjoys being a part of this dynamic group of women and engaging in daily conversations."

The show's Executive Publicity Director added: "Barbara Walters and Bill Geddie, executive producers of The View, consider Elisabeth to be vital to the program."

Hasselbeck is an ardent supporter of John McCain and Sarah Palin.

Democrat Rosie O' Donnell abruptly left the The View in May 2007 after she had an on-air blow up with Hasselbeck.

O'Donnell recently dubbed Hasselbeck an "identical cousin" of Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin on her blog, Rosie.com.
