Star: Barbara Walters Is a Hypocrite
http://people.aol.com/people/article/0,26334,1209129,00.htmlThe war of words between Star Jones Reynolds and Barbara Walters over the former's dramatic departure from The View this week continues to sizzle. As PEOPLE.com reported on Wednesday, Walters told PEOPLE she felt "betrayed" by Reynolds's comments to the magazine, referring to Reynolds's statement saying, "I feel like I was fired."
In response, Reynolds tells New York's Daily News: "For Barbara to say she felt betrayed is the height of hypocrisy."
The statement echoes what she told PEOPLE: "I thought the audience deserved to have their Star tell them what the deal is. To now be accused of betrayal by someone I looked at as a mentor, when I was finally speaking up for myself instead of letting the executives and tabloids speak for me, is disheartening."
Reynolds also says she hasn't spoken to Walters since Tuesday's show. The call to say she should not return for Wednesday's episode went from the network directly to her agent – and that "If anyone should feel betrayed, it should be me," Reynolds tells the News.
