Watching news shows sends addled TV legend into a tragic frenzy
BARBARA WALTERS, 91, DEMENTIA HORROR

STRICKEN with advanced dementia, TV icon Barbara Walters is a prisoner in her own apartment and kept from watching news broadcasts, according to insiders, because they upset her too much!

Sources said the 91-year-old news legend spends most of her day in bed, has difficulty recognizing her caretakers and rarely has lucid moments.

“Barbara is just a shadow of herself,” revealed a source.

“She often doesn’t remember what day it is, or who her famous friends and former colleagues are.”

The only thing that rouses Barbara are news broadcasts, according to insiders, who reveal the former “Today” co-host and “ABC Evening News” anchor flies into a frenzy thinking she should be at work when she sees them!
