The former Playboy centerfold has been outspoken about her belief that her 50-year-old brother was murdered ever since MJ’s death of a suspected overdose at his rented Los Angeles June 25. Now she’s breaking her silence. ABC promises a “no-holds-barred interview will cover topics including La Toya Jackson’s impressions of Michael Jackson’s children and her insight into the Jackson family.”

“I am thankful to the investigators for uncovering the truth to the world, and I look forward to the day that justice will be served to ALL the parties involved in my brother’s homicide.”

La Toya’s interview with Barbara airs on Friday, Sept. 11 on 20/20. La Toya will also fill-in for Elisabeth Hasselbeck as a co-host on the Walters-produced daytime talk show The View on September 16 and 18.

According to The Globe, the shaken creator of The View was stunned that the creature was able to get into her home — after all, all of the window were locked.

Barbara quickly alerted the building super, who explained that the pigeon probably entered the apartment through the chimney and later killed itself trying to escape.

“Babs freaked out when she saw the lifeless creature and had someone else dispose of it.”

Barbara Walters has a bone to pick with Bruno. Babs claims she was left disgusted and outraged by Sacha Baron Cohen’s box office hit — and wants the world to know it.

During a heated debate during The Hot Topics segment of The View Tuesday, the veteran newswoman complained that she found movie boring and “very pornographic” for its R rating. Apparently, BW didn’t enjoy seeing close-ups of penises and anal sex. Barbara also discussed her concerns over parents bringing their children to see the comedy.

The usually levelheaded Whoopi Goldberg unleashed her inner Native New Yorker on conservative commentator Glen Beck on The View Wednesday.

The Oscar-winning star coined a new catchphrase on today’ show, calling Beck a “lying sack of dog mess” after the host of The Glen Beck Program publicly lied about his chance meeting with Whoopi and View creator Barbara Walters on an Amtrak train last week.

Here’s the clip!

Another shining example of America’s tendency to reward bigots with platforms to spew their tomfoolery……

Last year, conservative right-winger Elisabeth Hasselbeck hit back at tabloid reports that she was leaving the ladies of The View for greener pastures at the more Republican-friendly FOX News Channel. These days, the pregnant mother of two is boo-hooing that series creator Babs Walters is trying to boot her from the buzzworthy daytime talk show — and you’ll never guess the name being tossed around as her possible replacement.

Move over Liz, there’s a new right-wing babe on the block.

Flies on the wall at ABC claim View producers are eagerly pursuing Miss California Carrie Prejean — who made international headlines with her anti-gay marriage statement during the 2009 Miss USA pageant earlier this month — to fill-in for the equally conservative Hasselbeck when she goes on maternity leave later this year.

And insiders say if Carrie plays her cards right, the arrangement could become a permanent one.

“Elisabeth really has something to worry about,” says a show spy.

The National Enquirer’s Mike Walker writes: “It could turn into a permanent gig for the controversial beauty queen….Barbara’s seriously fed up with Elisabeth’s coo-coo-conserva-babble — and her looney-toon responses…”

Donald Trump is scheduled to appear on The View for the first time since his feud with comedienne Rosie O’Donnell damaged his friendship with series creator Barbara Walters.

On Tuesday, May 5, the tycoon will join Babs and the rest of the girls for a chat on his new book and the May 11 season finale of The Celebrity Apprentice.

In 2007, Donald and Barbara became engaged in a war of words after Rosie publicly criticized Donald’s decision to allow Miss USA Tara Conner to keep her crown, even after the beauty queen got involved in partying and drug use. Donald fired back by calling the Emmy-winner “fat and ugly.” He was even more angry over Barbara’s defense of Rosie, which resulted in the businessman telling the press that the veteran journalist was “off his list.”

Barbara responded by branding “Mr. My Hair Looks Like An Onion Loaf” a “poor, pathetic man.”

Barbara Walters doesn’t know how to spell sex words.

Following in the footsteps of the Divine Lady O -who sent her first Tweet during a live taping of The Oprah Winfrey Show Friday – ABC’s Barbara Walters finally joined the Twitter trend on Monday’s Hot Topics edition of The View.

“I’m losing my Twitter verginity!” Walters wrote, using her BlackBerry. Umm, Babs, last we checked there was an ‘i’ –not an ‘e’–in the word “virginity?” Of course, it’s been a long time since you had yours, so you get a pass this time.

Barbara was corrected by none other than mother of three Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

“No one has written me on Twitter yet,” the veteran newswoman complained at the end of the show.

Ratings on The View have shot through the roof this season–and so have the co-hosts’ salary demands.

The daytime gabfest, currently ranked No.2 among women aged 18-49, has experienced a ratings boom in recent weeks. The View now averages 4.2 million viewers a day thanks to the newly-extended “Hot Topics” segment. But the Season 12 ratings success has lead to money demands for hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Sherri Shepherd, and Joy Behar, who now want a bigger piece of the pie.

A National Enquirer informant says: “Barbara thinks their new salary demands are outrageous–some are asking for several million dollars–and she told one confident-’They should all be ashamed of themselves–I’ve never seen a greedier bunch.’”
