US magazine is reporting that Walters’ upcoming book “Audition” allegedly includes a passage in which Walters claims Jones “forced her to lie about her gastric bypass surgery on The View”.

Hold up right there. Who “forces” Barbara Walters to say anything as a broadcaster, let alone on her own show?

US spoke to Jones exclusively to which she said that Walters is “speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book”.

Oh, here we go again!
