Howard Stern Scares Barbara Walters Into Quitting ABC's 20/20

Although an unlikely reason, the recently reported news story announcing Howard Stern's hosting of a prime time ABC news special nay have contributed to Barbara Walters deciding to quit ABC's 20/20. Officially, the word is she says she wants more time with family and friends or to write a book. If that was the case, she'd have quite years ago. It's well known, she's had a rivalry with Diane Sawyer who was given the Howard "scream" Dean interview instead of Walters. Either way, this will make Howard Stern very happy.
