Barbara Walters just told President Barack Obama she's retiring next year ... this according to a source who heard Barbara say it.
Barbara just finished interviewing the Prez at the White House.� According to the source, during a break in the action, Barbara leaned over to Obama and said, "I need one more interview with you because I'm retiring next year."� Here's the thing .. Barbara's mic was open when she said it, and lots of people were listening.
Barbara still does specials for the network, in addition to "The View."� Her "Most Fascinating People" show aired last night -- Obama was NOT on her list.
We called ABC News for comment, but so far ... nothing.
12:00 PM PT: Jeff Schneider, Sr. VP of ABC News, just got off the phone with Walters and told us,� "Barbara has joked that she is retiring every year since the Clinton Administration. Anyone who just did a day trip to Syria, 90-minute prime time special and an interview with the President and First Lady hardly sounds like someone retiring from anything."�
We asked if she fibbed to Obama to get another interview, and Schneider laughed, saying, "She's one of the greatest bookers who ever lived."
