Even from a distance,
Barbara Walters
knows
The View could be better. Since retiring from the morning talk show in May 2014, the esteemed journalist has watched
The View "almost every day." Although she kept the title of executive producer, Walters tells
Vanity Fair
that she now has less "involvement" than she would like. And yes, she has called the control room to speak to the executive producer or the director. Of possibly becoming over-involved in the show, Walters says, "I try
not to." "The View" aside, Walters says the thing she's most proud of in her professional life is that she knows she's inspired other women to enter the field of journalism.??
