She didn’t shatter one single thing. The people that paved the way for her elitist arse did the shattering, not her.

My wife is in the news business and while neither of us agree with Barbara politically, she DID shatter some serious glass ceilings at that time and should be recognized for that.


I get that. But be humble. She acted as if SHE was the only one and the only reason why woman are where they are in the business.

I’m surprised so many people on this site are upvoting this sentiment. People on here go to bat for horrible people all the time on this site

The Ukraine thread people tell me Zelensky is like Winston Churchill, Patton, and FDR all rolled into one.


Replace Ukraine thread with poli board and Zelensky with Trump

Worshiping celebrities and political figures alike is always fricking weird

You have to be at minimum a narcissist to be either

Did you ever cross paths with Barbara? I know she summered in the Hamptons.

Why do we continue to idolize and worship horrible people?


By idolize do you mean say, "Oh wow, [person] died"?

Lizzo could do that, but she'd have to go up one floor and jump up and down.

Are you seriously suggesting that horrible people (like BW) are not idolized due to their celebrity?

The whole country and world has a character flaw of worshipping celebrities. Whether that be movie celebrities, sports celebrities, politicians, et al.


Hollywood worship is on its way out the door. But worship of politicians (of ALL people) seems to be replacing them.

The current Sports Celeb worship-fest, Jock-Sniffers Inc is now totally out of control and cringe (Thanks ESPN-ABC-Disney and NFL Network.)

She may have personally been a terrible person, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t do great things for other people and the world of journalism.


Have you been in a coma? Journalism is dead. It's all propaganda now. She helped kill it.
