She was a tough cookie, I grew up with her on 20/20 and the specials she would do. The game was - she made them cry. She was a gift for us women, the suffrage movement was silently still going on, she was the General of that fighting

Barbara Walters was one of those powerful women I grew up seeing on TV as a young girl and as I got older I still got to enjoy her and look at her as a power figure. She had amazing journalistic skills

I love her personality, voice, empathy, hearing, emotions, the movement of her ability to hear and create the questions with the harmony of her body movements. She made me smile, laugh , surprise me, react, question me!! Unique, Amazing, Intelligent and with many Class. Thank you Mrs. Barbara Walters you will be in my heart forever. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentine ❤

💖God bless her for calling out sexists all these times. Women all over the world should take after her on su h dignity to uphold women. Not the domineering feminist way or the women who lose self-respect and run after men because they worship them. NO. Barbara knew and showed us that being a woman of Dignity is about Self-respect while with vulnerability while holding other people the same accountability to respect themselves and everyone else by showing the public who they are. She was such a FORCE gently hitting and breaking new grounds before all those men knew what was happening. Thank you for the inspiration and for your legacy Barbara ✨🌺.

She asked the unique, and sometimes difficult questions, and she will Be Remembered for her many Contributions to the News Media, Journalism, television Reporting Timeline. Barbara Walters Media Endeavors are woven in the fabric of News Media and Journalistic History. Author Advocate, Activist for Humanity, Jason Sandifer, Michigan, 01/02/2023

When the ABC Evening News became World News Tonight in July 1978, Walters stayed on the evening news beat as the forth castmember. Both Peter Jennings and Frank Reynolds returned to the anchor desk after a 10-year hiatus reporting in the field. While Walters was the first female to anchor an evening newscast, Max Robinson was the first person of color to do the same job. Walters, Robinson, Jennings and Reynolds - those were the first few years of World News Tonight. Thank you Roone Arledge for making that happen

I respect Shah Pahlavi for his honesty. He does not pretend to sound politically correct. He is very aware that he says something that will attract criticism. He is absolutely open about his thoughts 6:11

In karnataka state day by day fear of gujarat type communal clashes law and order is totally collapsed democracy in danger peoples are feared.please to impose the President rule in the state and to protect the peoples in karnataka state

[@ericalover3025]

What was the big deal of her being the first woman to do that when she is white?

[@ands1894]

You completely missed the point. It was a BIG deal as a WOMAN and FOR women. She was one of the first few women to slowly and surely create a space for historically disenfranchised women. Don’t push race issues when it’s about sex/gender norms.
