One of few people you never thought of passing away. I didn't even know she was 93. Awesome classy lady! Prayers to her family!

May she R.I.P. She was a huge part of my childhood. 20/20 was one of my favorite news shows because of her. Her voice and on-screen presence was inspiring. The questions she asked was informative and felt like real journalism. We don't get much of her kind of journalism today, sadly.

What a touching tribute to one of the Telivision's towering personalities of the century. RIP Barbara. For opening the doors for several women and breaking the glass ceiling even before it became a fashionable term to throw around.

She outlived most of the people she interviewed, what a legend

I came here in solitude to say goodbye to a true pioneer in news: Barbara Walters. Thank you for the memories. You brought my family together for just one hour, one day at a time. Slowly, that one hour of news with our family being forced to spend time with one another brought our broken home back together. Next thing you know, it re-established the relationships I had with my immediate family. Thank you, Barbara, for your hard work and dedication to the TRUTH

I had no idea Barbara Walters was 93. Since she was working up until a few years ago. She was a trailblazer for women in television. A great journalist. Old school, not afraid to ask the tough questions. May she rest in peace. Condolences to her family & friends.

There will never be a pioneer like Barbara. She changed the industry multiple times and what an amazing testament to her legacy to see all of the female anchors, reporters give her the much deserved flowers on her last show on the View. R.I.P. Ms. Walters
