Barbara Walters: ‘I Have No Announcement To Make’

Barbara Walters sidestepped rumors of her retirement in Monday's broadcast of "The View."

"There were many reports last week that I was retiring from ABC and there was an assumption that I would be making an announcement today," Walters said at the top of the show. "The paparazzi were outside my home today. However, here I am, and I have no announcement to make."

Rumors surfaced last week that Walters, 83, was planning to retire in May 2014 after a bout of health problems including a falling accident and chicken pox.
