“She is the reason we’re all sitting here today,” Goldberg said at the beginning of the telecast. 

Whoopi said that Barbara was a memorable part of the TV industry because “she did not allow them to not respect her.”

“We knew her better than anyone, I think,” added Behar.

“She was the original role model for everyone.”

“She was not just a friend to us; she was really one of a kind and very important to the industry.”

The co-hosts opened up about how Walters loved to tell stories, and dirty jokes, among other things.

“She could tell you everything about anybody in the room,” said Jones during the telecast, adding that Barbara always had all the tea.

“She was the best gossiper; she knew how to tell tales…If you wanted to know the tea, Barbara Walters had it.”

“She loved dirty jokes, and she loved to re-gift,” added Behar with a laugh. 

Behar said, “at Christmas, she would shop in her closet.”

Matenopoulos went on to speak about how Walters helped her career.

“I was a 22-year-old journalism student at NYU,” Matenopoulos said, adding that the advice from Walters was vital.
