She really was something else. The trails she blazed and the "firsts" she accomplished won't be done again. She has been sick for a good while and I hope that she is at peace now. Doing in in-person interview of God. LOL

As a kid, I saw her regularly on Today, with Hugh Downs, Frank Blair and, until he died, Frank McGee. RIP Barbara.

Barbara Walters, pioneering TV journalist who began on ‘TODAY,’ dies at 93

Walters was known in recent years as the co-creator of the hit ABC daytime show “The View,” but older viewers remember her as the first female anchor of a network news program.

Barbara Walters, the pioneering TV broadcaster who blazed a trail for women in a male-dominated medium, died Friday. She was 93.

Her death was confirmed by her representative, Cindi Berger, who said Walters died "peacefully in her home surrounded by loved ones."

"She lived her life with no regrets," Berger said. "She was a trailblazer not only for female journalists, but for all women.”

ABC, the network where she last worked, aired a special report Friday night announcing Walters' death and reflecting on her career. Bob Iger, CEO of the Walt Disney Company, parent of ABC, said in a statement Walters died Friday evening at her New York City residence...

Barbara Waters was no icon, no matter what the journalists/propagandists claim. Barbara Waters had a trailblazing career, but she also sexually hectored an underage Brooke Shields and never faced any consequences for it, In my opinion.

Brooke Shields calls Barbara Walters interview 'practically criminal'

Shields, 56, was just a teenager when Walters asked during their 1981 interview about her measurements.
