Yes, according to conservative media group and underground revolutionary army-sounding The Resistance. Barbara "has now sunk to the very level of other attention-starved celebrities such as Paris Hilton or even Steve-O from Jackass," because of a 30-year old affair she admits to in her new book Audition. As you'll remember from the countless media reports and Larry King interviews, she was sleeping with then-Massachusetts senator Edward W. Brooke, who was married at the time, while seeing Alan Greenberg, the future chairman of Bear Stearns.
And then, after breaking up with Brooke, she dated Alan Greenberg and Alan Greenspan (how husband to NBC News' Andrea Mitchell) at the same time. And oh, the hijinks that ensued because of their similar names!
Her Latina housekeeper couldn't keep the two Alans straight. "When they gave me the message, I could only ask, which one talked louder?" Walters wrote. "Alan Greenberg . . . talked in a normal tone of voice. Alan Greenspan was very soft-spoken. He almost whispered. [P6]
But really, unless she's stapled her balls to Alan Greenspan, Barbara isn't quite at the level of a Steve-O. And the closest she's ever got to doing a movie was moderating a 1976 presidential debate.
