Rosie O’Donnell is laughing off Barbara Walters’ comments from Thursday morning’s episode of “The View.”
Barbara took aim at the former host in the show opening in an apparent response to Rosie’s negative comments on Wednesday, noting that some past hosts had the tendency “to dump on [the show], maybe for their own publicity.”
