IMO, Barbara Walters was one of the last surviving Female News Journalists of good character and integrity.

Now we're left with; Rachel Maddow, Whoopie Goldberg, Karine Jean-Pierre, Andrea Mitchell, Ana Navarro, Et Al..

None of which deserve the title of journalist.

I have to agree with you CWM. I honestly popped onto this thread to leave one of my classic smart ass remarks but I can’t. She was a cut above all the current soulless morons you cited above. Regardless of her politics she seemed like a hard working, real (dare I say it) journalist. She seemed pretty classy too.

Barbara Walters invented The View, so we have her to thank for those Leftist idiots.
But overall a better journalist than all of them put together.

RIP Barb.

I didn't always agree with her, but she was always shooting for the truth.

Good ole days..

Hard to see those "other" names on the same post as Barbara. She WAS intelligence and class.

RIP Barbara. I will remember you forever.

Former President & Presidential candidate Donald Trump agrees with you.

Regarding the passing of the legendary Barbara Walters last evening...

She was the greatest of them all, by far. I knew her well, was interviewed by her many times, and there was nobody like the legendary Barbara Walters - And never will be!

I don't think she was the idiot who hired them. But the more of them who showed up, the quieter Barbara became. She ultimately left "The View" in disgust...and rightly so.

She has the distinction of being the "bubble-headed bleach blonde" in Don Henley's song "Dirty Laundry". I hope she wore that badge with pride, considering Henley's antics over the years.

Some people have dignity and grace, and that was Barbara Walters.
RIP

She couldn't be pushed around. Meagan Kelly she was not.

Barbara would let interviewees answer, without telling them "don't go there!", like this CNN witch did today to a Congressman.
