   "The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg slammed the re-editing of classic   
   books on Monday and suggested putting disclaimers on the literature   
   instead, adding, "this is how kids learn."    
      
   "Look, y’all got to stop this. Just put a disclaimer that says, listen,   
   this put was written at this time or put out the original and what   
   y’all have done. Because kids should have the right to read how people   
   thought so that they know how to make the change," Goldberg said.
