Veteran newswoman BARBARA WALTERS has urged new co-host ROSIE O'DONNELL to stop blogging about US talk show THE VIEW.
O'Donnell is joining the show on Tuesday (05SEP06) and regularly writes about what is happening in her life on her website.
The LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN star complained about a promotional skit from the new season of the show writing in an all lowercase style saying, "I saw the new view promos.
"Found myself/in the position/i loathe the most/powerless."
Walters discussed her feelings about O'Donnell's web posts with Newsweek magazine saying, "I didn't like the blog. I'm counting on Rosie's intelligence and sensitivity and humour.
"This is, after all, an entertainment show. It is based on people who like each other and are having a good time, not on people who are arguing and unhappy."
Soon after Walters spoke to the magazine, she received flowers and a card from her new co-host reading, "Barbara, I only want the promos and the show to be great. And I love you. Love, Ro." (SS/WNWCPL/ES)
