THE tension between "The View" creator Barbara Walters and co-host Rosie O'Donnell, sparked by O'Donnell's feud with Donald Trump, boiled over yesterday morning when the portly comic called Walters "a [bleeping] liar."
The fight started around 8:30 a.m. when Walters.... walked into the hair and makeup room at ABC studios and tried to hug O'Donnell....
According to spies, O'Donnell recoiled from Walters' touch and yelled, "You kept me in the newspapers this whole time!"
Both "View" producer Bill Geddie and Walters tried to calm O'Donnell. Walters told her, "I did everything I could to squash the story" - prompting Rosie to scream, "You didn't call me for 10 goddamn days, and you didn't tell me what you were going to say on television!"
O'Donnell is fuming because Trump went on Larry King two weeks ago - after she had called Trump a "snake-oil salesman" - and said Walters told him she regretted hiring O'Donnell. Trump also blasted the comic as "a horrible human being and a loser."
During her vacation, Walters issued a carefully worded statement saying, "I'm sorry there is friction between Donald and Rosie. That said, I do not regret for one moment my choice to hire Rosie O'Donnell as the moderator of 'The View.' "
After O'Donnell's outburst at Walters yesterday, Geddie jumped in and told her, "You've crossed the line." O'Donnell retorted, "Cameras are now outside of my house where my wife and kids are." She turned to Walters and said, "You went all around this and never called [Trump] a liar. You never said, 'Donald is lying.' You never called him a liar."
When Walters tried to defend herself, O'Donnell erupted, "Are you looking me in the face and denying you didn't tell him you didn't say this? You're a [bleeping] liar."

Looks like Trump is really getting to O'Donnell.
It's over.
Rosie now is working to get fired.
I wonder how she reacted to being heckled when she did stand up?
Hey,Rosie...how can you have a wife? You don't have a "Y" chromosome.
I am sure the View's ratings are now in the gutter.
Will this spat end in an open mouthed kiss?
Her "WIFE"???? Hey Rosie, THAT"S a LIE!!
Finally FINALLY someone frickin' stood up to these leftist feminazi fascists.
Probably made Michael Richards look like Mother Teresa.
She's a sweet and gentle flower, ain't she? *BLECH*
BaBa Walters will be AFRAID to Fire that fat ass.
And she proves Pope Benedict right.
They self-destruct.
Heh heh heh.
The Gators win the BCS title, and now it looks like Rosie the pig is flaming out. Can this day get any better?
'Portly'
LOL!
Hehehe, this is so much fun to watch....
I love how the Post describes O'Donnell as a "portly" comic.
I know what you mean. It reminds me of the fascination many have with car wrecks.
I hear Dunkin' Doughnuts is sending dozens of chocolate covereds and honeydipped to Rosie every hour to help her thru the stress.
