Star Jones responded to Barbara Walters allegations about her in her new book. In the book, Walters said she and her other View cohosts were forced to lie about Jones’ gastric bypass surgery which made Walters uncomfortable.

But Jones responded by questioning Walters’ character. Walters admitted in her book and on Oprah yesterday that she had a three-year affair with a married man who happened to be black. Well I Googled the man that Barbara had the affair with and it turns out he’s biracial.

Not that it matters, but he looks more white than black to me, so why not call him what he is which is mixed or biracial?

In an interview with USmagazine.com, Star Jones said of Barbara:

“It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book,” Jones told Us. “It speaks to her true character.” (Source)
