Babwa Defends Rosie ... Sorta

Posted Dec 21st 2006 5:10PM by TMZ Staff

Barbara Walters -- friend of Donald Trump, boss to Rosie O'Donnell -- attempted to delicately straddle the electric fence between the two, as she commented on their explosive fracas from afar.

"Donald Trump is a personal friend of mine and has been a good friend to 'The View' for many years," said Walters from abroad, via a rep for the show. "I'm sorry there is friction between Donald and Rosie."

Walters then plumped for Rosie. "That said, I do not regret for one moment my choice to hire Rosie O'Donnell as the moderator of 'The View.' I certainly hope and expect that this tempest will pass quickly."

Earlier today, Trump dragged Walters into the feud during a live interview on "Good Day LA," saying that "Barbara cannot stand Rosie."

91. Donald Trump
Thank you for speaking up against that ugly loud mouth Rosie Odikkell
If you dont agree with her then she feels she can bash you. She is a racist. that comment she made against ASIANS shows what a bitch she is. But let someone say anything that ugly Rosie doesnt like about GAYS and she has her big ugly mouth flappin'!
The View is not even worth watching since Rosie has become Barbara new BFF.

95. barbara walters is a joke i am sure she made that statment to the donald, But hey can she afford to fest up i dont think she would maybe after she gets rid of BIG MOUTH ROSIE. LETS FACE IT Ms. walters does not own ABC and they too might just be sick of Rosie. She has a big mouth and they all new it but barbara would have bring inboy george to get rid of star. she needs to get off the show too dont care if its her show sick of her PRUNE RAISEN FACE OLD BAG.
