Reynolds posted details on how to contact the president of ABC Daytime, Barbara Walters and another executive producer of the show on her Web site, starjones.com
According to Entertainment Tonight, Reynolds said she was responding to a request from fans who wanted to write to the network. She thanked fans for their support and said their numerous e-mails and letters have helped her cope with recent events.
As of Thursday evening, the Web site was down, only displaying the word "success."
The Internet has not always been kind to Reynolds. In January, she launched a blog to coincide with the release of her book "Shine: A Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Journey to Finding Love." The blog was flooded with negative comments and photos from detractors, despite — or perhaps because of — Reynold's warning that "anything that falls under the category of pure hateration will just be deleted from my blog."
Reynolds pulled the plug on the blog after only a few days online.
In other news, "The View" is lining up guest hosts for the next few weeks.
Brandy was scheduled to make her second fill-in appearance Friday on the daytime talk show's panel of women. Also lined up: "All My Children" star Susan Lucci and two personalities from "Dancing With the Stars" — former contestant Kelly Monaco and judge Carrie Ann Inaba.
Others will be booked between now and Aug. 4, when the show goes on a month's hiatus with repeats or previously recorded shows.
"The View" isn't trying out replacements for Reynolds this summer; that will be done after Rosie O'Donnell makes her debut on the show Sept. 5, spokesman Karl Nilsson said.
That doesn't mean some of the women who appear this month won't be considered for the permanent gig, he said.
