From the NY DAILY NEWS
Rosie O'Donnell has been flexing her muscles at "The View."
One insider says she is responsible for getting producer Bill Gedde - a close ally of Barbara Walters - moved off camera.... Come to thinkof it... Bill has been missing on camera, for a few weeks,.,
Until recently, the good-natured, clipboard-toting TV veteran was frequently featured on the show. But Rosie preferred him behind the scenes, says the source.
Says the source: "He is definitely Barbara's man and produces all her specials," according to the snitch. "Barbara doesn't go to any meetings [at 'The View'], but Bill goes to all of them."
A rep for O'Donnell insists she wasn't trying to muscle him out. "I think he's occasionally still on the air," she said. "He's the producer, he runs the show."
