  1. Rest in peace Barbara Walters⚘

  2. Goodbye, and don't come back !

  3. Compare to the dumb women of the View, Barbara was a class act!!

  4. 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!

  5. 😭Wow. 😭She has been heavy on my mind all year. I was asking about her all year. Where’s Barbara? I wonder how Barbara is doing? Does anyone know what’s going on with Barbara? She had a long full life. May she RIP. 🙏💝

  6. May BabaWawa soul rest in peace while looking up at us.

  7. Young Barbara looks like Dorit Kemsley.

  8. Thank you,, Barbara. You were such a great inspiration to us. It was a privilege to have lived in the same era.. May you rest in eternal peace..🙏

  9. DEAR LORD PLEASE COMFORT THE BEREAVED! IN THE NAME OF JESUS!

    BELOVED! PLEASE DON'T DIE WITHOUT JESUS IN YOUR HEART!

    AS CHRISTIANS, JESUS IN OUR HEART GIVES US THE BLESSED HOPE ! ❤️💃🎺🥰

    "FOR THE LORD HIMSELF SHALL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A SHOUT, WITH THE VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL, AND WITH THE TRUMP OF GOD: AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST SHALL RISE FIRST:
    THEN WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS, TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR: AND SO SHALL WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD."
    WHEREFORE COMFORT ONE ANOTHER WITH THESE WORDS." 1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-18!❤️

  10. I knew about her because of her interview with Micheal Jackson

  20. Best curly voice from tombstone; by

  21. 93 years old, she was just a kid.

  22. So long ,long times friend to anybody ,anyone Thank you for your business.

  23. Phenomenal journalist! She paved the way!

  24. How the news change.
    How the BUSINESS CHANGE.
    No more "WALTERS" They just hire and fired them like a toy…
    THAT'S HOW BECOME "FAKE NEWS"
    FOR ALL THE NEWS= ALL.

  25. She was truly amazing. It's too bad THE VIEW did not carry on her legacy.

  26. It’s funny, because you didn’t mention that one time, Corey Feldman was telling her about some of the child exploitation that happens in Hollywood… Only to have her tell him that he’s damaging an entire industry by saying such a wild claims lol…

  27. I admired Barbara Walters tremendously! Such an intelligent woman and an inspiration to all girls and young women going into the field of Journalism!
    My condolences to her family and everyone who loved her.
    May she rest in our Creator's Heavenly Glorious Loving Merciful Gracefilled Peace🙏

  31. RIP, Ms. Walters. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🌼🌼🌼

  32. Even in her departure she stole the show a few hours before 2023 is Barbara soul was set free

  33. Rest in Peace 🙏🙏🙏

  34. She was a trailblazer for women!

  35. She had a women's job . And thats ok

  36. She was the best. She was not afraid to challenge her interviewees, one of which was Trump whom she was not afraid to challenge his every statement. It was brilliant. She was a roll model for women in broadcasting; however, none in today's media come close to emulating her. She did the job; they're just there. RIP Barbara Walters.
