Baba Wawa to Retire?

After more than five decades in broadcasting and making people cry, Barbara Walters is ready to take a little time to enjoy the view.

My, what – couldn’t it last forever? Does she not have anyone left she really, really wants to make tear up?

I guess when you have been at it as long as she has and as groundbreakingly – I know...not a proper word (and she would shudder at being associated with it) – as she has, the time does come to call it quits.

Now, some reports have Walters announcing her retirement in May, while others say she’ll ride into the TV sunset next year. I guess she will say, so until then it is all talk (show fodder, so tune into The View today!)

Good for you, Baba Wawa – you have done good. Now enjoy your spoils.

Update: Oh, snap – she ain’t going nowhere.

Barbara Walters was back on The View on April 1 and announced that she has no retirement announcement to make.

She did, however, promise that when and if the time comes, she will say something on The View. So, y’ know, do stay tuned.
