May 1, 2008, 6:51 p.m.She is certainly going to receive a lot of flack for this, but it would make a hell of an interesting story as the subject of a movie. A reporter in love with one of her subjects..interesting. The power of human emotion over logic and duty lol.
Very interesting to see this story come out, particularly from Walters herself.

May 2, 2008, 1 p.m.and millions of liberals turn into the "view" to listen daily to a person with this kind of moral compass. Pathetic.
Its not Hot, its not cool, its just sad.

May 1, 2008, 7:28 p.m.My goodness! Adultery in high places! "Crossing the color line!" A retarded sister! Silence Broken After All These Years!
You'll forgive me if this "revelation" seems to me yet one more bubble in the ongoing soap opera (Oprah?) of one of the High Priestesses thereof.
Once upon a time, BW was an actual, well respected reporter. But it all devolves, doesn't it?
Doesn't it?

May 1, 2008, 7:49 p.m.That's just what I need after eating a fine meal. Reading this and having an image of Babs doing the naughty burned into my minds eye.
Gosh Barbara, sometimes secrets are best kept secrets, now you have forced a few million others to share in the ownership of your seedy side of your life, including me. I want you to find my number or come over sometime, I can 'share' a few tidbits from my past with you. They would titillate you to no end.

May 1, 2008, 8:38 p.m.Well, she could not resist a 10" black snake after all. Familiar situation, been there and done that.
It is amazing this celebrity made by the "MEDIA" is a B&*^%$.

Don't you want to add something about natural rhythm? Or Barbara being hot for gelt? She is Jewish, you know....

May 2, 2008, 12:33 a.m.Wow.
She is held in such high regard in so many circles it's bizarre to see her as a real person almost.

May 2, 2008, 5:55 a.m.My mistake. When I said "been there, done that" I really was not referring to myself. I was actually referring to scandals involving hypocrite Republican US Congressmen who trumpet themselves as champions of family values.
I would never ever touch a black snake with a 10' pole.

May 2, 2008, 8:21 a.m.Worst of it all, she had the guts to interview people and couples who were involved in marital problems, adultery and cheating.
Not only a f^&*(^% nymph but a hypocrite like Jesse Jackson!

May 2, 2008, 9:07 a.m.I have a few names that comes to my mind.
1. NBA legend Mr. Chamberlain who touted to have seen 10,000 women. How could he have missed this one.
2. OJ.
3. NFL star Jim Brown.
4. Lexington Steele.
5. Dennis Rodman

May 2, 2008, 9:48 a.m.Well, well, well. Call me crazy, but I'd do her now. She reminds me of that 2 and half men episode where they banged Cloris Leechman and they both agreed that she knew "stuff". I bet Barbara knows "stuff".

May 2, 2008, 10:46 a.m.This is nothing unusual. Barry O'Bama is (one of) MY senators, and he's been screwing ME for months now. (Not showing up for roll call votes, but still on the payroll...)

May 2, 2008, 11:28 a.m.I'm glad to hear this happened over 30 years ago, cause picturing her having an affair at her current age makes every muscle in my body cringe as a cold chill runs down my spine.

May 2, 2008, 12:16 p.m.Not to go PC on y'all, but many of these posts are:
sexist
racist
ageist...
Have I left anything out? But perhaps the truer truth is that, as soon as ol' demon sex is mentioned, we react in terms of our most basic appetites/fears, as in:
"Who cares who she's sleeping with?"
"I'd do her now" (as if anyone asked you)
"These revelations are just plain disturbing"
"So Barbara Walters is a man"
"Well, she could not resist a 10" black snake"
"Isn't she Linda Lovelace's 2nd cousin?"
"Having an affair at her current age makes every muscle in my body cringe as a cold chill runs down my spine"
"Geraldo said he banged her a long time ago as well"....
Have I made my point?

May 2, 2008, 12:27 p.m.You've made "your" point. I think other peoples' points center around the ethical and moral question regarding her not only sleeping with a married man, or having an affair of some sort, but then talking about it in public. Both actions have serious social and intra-personal consequences.

May 2, 2008, 4:31 p.m.But what you left out was,she is a woman,a human being,a world class journalist that has interviewed more world leaders than anyone i can think of,set an example for women to follow,busted into a career that was totally dominated by men,and in the process showed that she is as normal as the rest of us.

May 3, 2008, 8:20 p.m.Have I made my point?
LOL that you're with the PC police? Look she brought it to our attention,,, not one person here asked to know about this..... our reaction to it was levity or disgust because that's how humans react to uncomfortable situations, and believe me, the picture it put in my mind's eye made me very uncomfortable and I will never forgive the tramp for making me see her that way.
I guess if we all started singing Jungle love and telling her way to go Babs that would be ok?
