Sister

As a general rule, I do not like The View's/20/20's Barbara Walters. I find her pedantic, boring, insecure, self-serving, etc.

But I disliked her a little less after her Oprah interview two nights ago. The part where she got to me was when she dropped the interviewer pretenses and got real about the death of her mentally retarded sister.

She wasn't there for the death. It happened about two days after an operation. I could tell it still haunted her. She missed her sister's death because of another ABC obligation, delivering some "awful," forgettable speech in some forgettable town.

Maybe if she released this human side more often, ... I don't know.
