ABC
News spokesman Jeffrey Schneider says the 83-year-old Walters fell
Saturday night on a step at the residence of Britain’s ambassador to the
United States, Peter Westmacott. The fall left Walters with a cut on
her forehead.
Schneider said
Sunday “out of an abundance of caution” Walters went to a hospital for
treatment of the cut and for a full examination. He says Walters is
alert “and telling everyone what to do,” which is “a very positive
sign.”
It’s unclear when Walters might be released from the hospital, which ABC hasn’t identified.
Walters
was TV news’ first female superstar, making headlines in 1976 as a
network anchor with an unprecedented $1 million annual salary.
Barbara fell and she can't get up ! Quick! someone give this woman a life alert chain.
