john ramsey with barbara walters just a year ago. -- we had an interview with john ramsey with barbara walters just a year ago. you can see the handwriting analysis 's ownnd patsy ramsey handwriting samples that she gave to investigators. it is pretty stunning when them up and look at them word by word, letter by letter. we will let you judge for yourself when you see that. that was perhaps the most stunning visual information that i got when you really got to see it up close, side by side. we are looking forward to that episode of "20/20" tonight. coming up after the break, any chance of a warm-up for the weekend? we will check back in with doug. are at the washington, d.c., medical center -- we are doug: clouds will be increasing today, 29. then a wintry mix early in the morning, then warming up to 54. even warmer temperatures on sunday. we will probably have some updates to these watches and advisories at 4:00. jummy: it is going like this this weekend. thank you for joining us this midday. watch "abc 7 news at 4:00." have a wonde

as they would tell barbara walters in an interview several years later, they got home well after dark>> jonbenet was asleep when we arrived home. we took her to bed. and got burke to bed, set the alarm, and went to sleep. >> reporter: before dawn the next morning, patsy was the first one up. as she headed down this spiral staircase, something catches her eye. several pieces of paper. >> there were three pages neatly laid across one of the runs of the stairway. >> reporter: pages scrawled with a handwritten, heart-stopping message. it was a ransom note. >> of all of the evidence left behind, that ransom note is the most baffling. >> reporter: reporter diane dimond has covered the story from the beginning. she says the author of the ransom note seemed to know a lot about the family. the demand for $180,000 was close to the exact amount of john ramsey's bonus that year. >> ransom note is not that long. a ransom note says, "i have your child. i want a million dollars. i'll call you later." this is two and a half pages long. whoever does that? >> i just remember when i read we have your da

>> guest: the reason i sat down with barbara walter. ones we had done in past, except for the first one in 1987 when she was a mentor after that. dear, dear woman. is that the one we did scent to that were really about where are we now and how did i journey through that time and take the high road. there are millions of dollars on the table, and i made a chose then to return back to my christian faith and my prayer was, how can this be used for good? i think this is the message that is so important when we look at all these issues online even, and that is -- particularly when kits are getting bullied, how can i take the high road here, not lash back, not get into a twitter war or cyberbullying war and make things worse, and to do that, treat people those people who are hurt can you with kindness. for me, i was back to the goodba book and the golden rule and it works. it really does work. that's talks me back to what i said in the beginning. i'd like to see it -- this has been a quarter century for me -- our culture begin to change. this

i went to barbara walters. i said barbara, this is what is going on and i'm ready to start talking.ernet safety is where it is that. she came back and said i talked to my producers and they said i can't say pornography on the air. we started. we were early pioneers and it was an exciting time. understand how in my own life i have been hurt. sometimes you minimize those things in your life and i did. i realize how pornography played a role in a negative way my life. i felt like this was something i was most to do. that was 24 years ago now. host: emission barbara walters. he sat down with her recently. similar viewers know your name. why is this related to back in 1987, europe fair with gary hart? guest: allegedly. host: he talked with barbara walters about it. is this related to your work? guest: the reason i sat down with barbara walters and did this interview, the ones we did in the past, except the first in 1987 when she became a friend that the ones we did subsequent to that were about where are we now inhabit a journey through that time and decide to take the high road. that wa

emac, what is barbara walters saying about it?pset about it that they ruined the show she created. instead of building a show on smart, educated women. they have a cast of characters who are uninformed. apparently barbara walters calls into the show weekly on her ideas how to fix the show. she didn't show up for post-election show. the word was she was in florida on vacation. stuart: i thought that was a new low to mix those two together. a terrible new low. show me the ratings. can we show that? in barbara walters day she they had 38 million viewers. now they have 3. >> i'm staggered they have 3. i think the reputation of the show has gone straight down hill. equating the issues of abortion and celebrating christmas is beyond. i need to go into the reasons why. wins an extremely controversial moral issue that concerns a great many americans. another is a joyous celebration of a wide think beloved religious holiday. give me a break. that's part of the 3 million. stuart: we are going to check the share price of mcdonald's. we got s

i look at oprah winfrey, a ceo i definitely admire, she was trying to mimic barbara walters but the second she was like forget that, i'm just going to go with it, we all know how that story ends. >> we do. she did pretty well for herself. >> you also say trust counsel but trust your own judgment >> this is what it's about. trusting your instinct. a lot of the people have that clouded doubt, they have a crowd around them that is feeding that doubt. get good counsel that are not necessarily yes men but they see the best in you and want your best. when you have that intuition supported by people on the outside cheering you on, you're going to be successful >> like that. last but not least, know that failure is a key to success. afraid of failure but, you know, it's part of it >> i'm here as a test meant i had a small business a day spa almost a decade when the economy folded so did my business. if you were to ask me at that time would i do it again? i'd say no, but years later, i saw what went right and wrong, not only is my new business more profitable, but i've built on that foundation of l

the view has gotten so bad apparent apparently, even barbara walters hates it.ecutives have ruined the show because of a revolving door of talent. she launched the talk show in 1997 but reportedly refused to show up for a reunion. referring to the host as "uninformed child actors." >> that's true. you need consistency on a show. >>> deputy springs into action saving a toddler's life performing cpr after a 15-month-old suddenly stopped breathing in a tampa tax collector's office. >> the trainer said don't forget, this might be a baby you're saving one day. >> i'd rather approach a gang of bank robbers than have to do cpr again on an infant. i was probably more scared than the mother was. >> a month after that ordeal, deputy steve donaldson was reunited with the happy and healthy young boy and being honored as an everyday hero. i love stories like that. >>> coming up on the show, imagine you're in church for sunday mass, instead of preaching about god, the preacher decides to talk about climate change. >> that would be wonderful. >> father john is here to react to
