Jane Fonda by her direct actions had many of our POW's beaten to death, witnessed the scenes and did nothing but encourage and comfort the enemy. Her true name "Hanoi Jane" should have been hung for TREASON years ago. Honor her, no way. She is a disgrace to America. Barbara you'd better re-think what your doing. Hanoi Jane shouldn't even be acknowledged.
Jane Fonda is one of the "100 women of the Century"? I find it hard to believe that a traitor to her country should be honored with this title. You cannot Honor someone who has no Honor. We are all entitled to our opinions but she can never undo her actions. I wish her no ill will but I will never honor her. My father flew with the B52's in Vietnam I choose to honor him, those who made it home and those who did not.
Lest we forget...' 100 Years of Great Women'
should never include a traitor whose hands are
covered with the blood of so many patriots.
Hanoi Jane's participation in the VietNam
War was blatant treason. She needs to know that we will never forget!!!
Barbara Walters is honoring Jane Fonda for one of the 100 people of the cnetury. Does Barbara remember that Jane Fonda is a traitor and a disgrace to this country, and now Barbara ia a disgrace! Barbara is dementiated!
Ellen, please be careful when dealing with Barbara. You have such a great reputation right now and I love your show and many of the things you have stood for. Barbara has proven over the years to alter her work for personal gain or gain of those close to her including her first interview with Jane Fonda. Jane Fonda is still an issue for those of us in the military community. You are hosting a woman who altho paved many great roads has chosen to allign herself and sell out to make those roads.
You have done so much for women who choose to live their lives their way. You, Ellen, are the woman who is now laying the new path. Please be careful in your words that you do not make the same sacrifice of conscience that your guest has. I admire Barbara Walters in some ways but those choices she made in interview choice, honoring, and altering interview methods in certain interviews to get the story has left a negative that will always be in my mind.
I hope your show goes well.
Best Wishes Always.

I love Ellen but Barbara Walters.........no.
I am wondering why Jane Fonda is being honored by Barbara Wakters as '100 woman of the century!
Jane Fonda is a traitor to America and all the servicemen that were in Vietnam.
What a person thinks personally should keep it in their own circles , not literally go to the ememy, do things to have our men crusified.
Too bad someone didn't put a bullet in her her head or better yet, capture her in North Vietnam and put her in the same circumstances as our captive soldiers.
Who made her God?
Killing of anyone can be wrong at times but during a war, we have to support the troops, not nessisarily supporting our corrupt government who sent these boys into war..........any war.
Thank you .
Barbara Walter's life was influenced greatly by her older sister and she's written a beautiful memoir about her life. I read another memoir of a life influence by a sibling that I recommend highly - I actually liked it even more. The memoir is ""My Stroke of Insight"" by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor. Dr Taylor became a Harvard brain scientist to find the cause and cure for schizophrenia because her older brother was a sufferer. Then, crazy as life can be, Dr. Taylor had a stroke at age 37. What was amazing was that her left brain was shut down by the stroke - where language and thinking occur - but her right brain was fully functioning. She experienced bliss and nirvana and the way she writes about it (or talks about it in her now famous TED talk) is incredible.
What I took away from Dr. Taylor's book above all, and why I recommend it so highly, is that you don't have to have a stroke or take drugs to find the deep inner peace that she talks about. Her book explains how. ""I want what she's having"", and thanks to this wonderful book, I can!
Ellen... besides your show.. i love the view.. i actually only usually watch the Hot Topics, then do other things.. unless someone i really like is on... GOOD JOB ELLEN.. LOVE YOU!!!
Dear Ellen,
I thought it was so upsetting her book she thought the only bad thing that about having the affair with Ed Brooks was to ruin his career, never mentioning the ruining his marriage.
You see it happened to me. Oh,yes the women was more exciting and I was just his wife and the mother of his children.
Some people go on with there "little mistakes". Other never get over how plain blind they were for never seeing thing,just never recovering for their falled life.
love you,
a.
The view is sooo much better since Whoopi and Sherri became apart of the show. Whoopi is able to take control of things and Sherri is hilarious!
The view is a good program. We all have to learn not to bud in when someone else is talking. I like to hear all views but when they are all talking.. I don't hear anything.. all I hear is yelling.. noise. Hurts my ears... so I lower the volume actually.. and if it gets too bad... fighty... I flip!
I felt bad that star left. I liked her. Meredith is the reason why I started watching.. I think she's cute and funny! Then I started liking Joy's humor/views.. and Star was logical/attorney view person... and Barbara was the "mom" on the set.. who gets imbarrased!!!! but can also throw in her 2 cents! I miss Meredith but she's moved on to better things and am happy for her. I like Rosie when she was on for the sake of missing her on tv from quitting her talk show... I liked it when she through stuff at the audience!!! and it was a fun show. ... so I thought I'd watch her on the view but sadly it wasn't the same Rosie.. 'cause it wasn't her show.. she was more laid back in a sense and it didn't fill the gap of missing Rosie show.. then it got ugly and people got hurt and then Whoopie comes in.. and I like Whoopie.. she's funny! Soo... Yeah.. I watch on occassion. I like the guests sometimes... if not I just watch the first 20 minutes where they tell me the news.. that's where I get my news!!!
I love your show. My husband, George X. Hale, loves your show. Our lesbian daughter, Alice, loves your show. Our son, Morgan, and his fiancee, Cassandra, who are marrying in Alaska in August love your show. My sister Dorrie loves your show. Only Dorrie is nearly as funny as you. (Not REALLY nearly, but when we tell her that, it makes her feel good.) We all love your show!.
Thanks for making me laugh. Sometimes things are going so well or I'm not feeling well and you make EVERYTHING better. Thanks
Love,
Deborah

I love you Ellen, I think you are GREAT! You have more class in your little finger than Barbara does in her whole body. Jane Fonda has none.
I think Barbara should be ashamed of herself. First she comes out (not too long ago) that she had an affair with a married man and named him on national tv. How sad for his wife and their children! She didn't think twice about them for sure. Now she (the home wrecker) is going to honor Jane Fonda, (a traiter). Grow up Hollywood, the majority of the American people hate her for what she did. We are tired of movies stars and their uneducated opinions. As for Ellen, she is the best. She is beautiful, has a heart of gold and CARES! Ellen, you outshine them all.
