Barbara Walters knew that most women in the free press are still complete trash. Why? Because they’re a bunch of ignorant subordinates who didn’t pay into Social Security.
Thank you Barbara Walter's to be one of the most humble and courageous woman!! You are one of a kind!!! My condolences to her family! God Bless Barbara Waltwrs!!!
The Real Veronica Corningstone! RIP 🙏
🇦🇱🇽🇰🇺🇸🎏🇦🇱🏆
Tribute to Barb. She made us smarter and better people (those of us who paid attention, anyway). She will be remembered long after Harry Reasoner is in the dustbin of history. That's a fact.
Lotta cream in dah coffee ☕
S h h def was someone special; Different and looked so trust worthy, a front very front line person, a symbol that can not be forgotten but always comforting and motherly like🏆❤️🌹🇺🇸👑
Well I couldn't believe she was still alive!
Famous yes, enormously so.
Also incredibly rude and not very bright, she smacked of petulance with her know-it-all attitude, in addition of not even having a sense of humor to make matters worse.
Being interviewed by her became a de rigueur custom… a disgusting fashion perpetuaded by the media.
There is not a single "journalist" work from her that didn't make me cringe. She lacked tact, humanity, compassion…
Womyn rights were not advanced a millimeter by her antics. She was just unsympathetic, unsensitive and annoying.
Glad her final meeting with the Grim Reaper will not be televised, she won't be missed!
There’s a substantial difference between interrogator and journalist.

America has lost a national treasure
FROM MORLEY SAVER TO DAN RATHER CRONKITE TOO
REAL NEWS WAS REAL -EVEN WITH BARBARA
NOT LIKE THE FAKES WE HAVE NOW!
I asked my husband what did Barbara Walters die of? He says, "Whadda ya mean, what did Babwah Wahwah die of, she was 93!… 93! Sheesh." I guess when people are really old you don't ask what they died of. .

We will always love and remember you Babs. You deserve a send off as big as the queen had. You are timeless and colorless . Continue to interview in heaven
She was definitely a pioneer of television. She blazed the trail that hundreds of women would soon follow. Without Barbara, there would be no Savanah and Hoda. There would be no Connie. There would be no Andrea. There would be no Gayle. There would be no Joan. There would be no countless of women journalists and anchors and talk show hosts, both here and around the world. Barbara was the first, and she definitely wasn't the last. RIP Barbara.
I never realized Anchorman was based on real life events
