She freaked out and almost quit after Barbara Walters reprimanded her on the air.

After they went to commercial, Elisabeth went backstage and LOST IT!

Over the weekend, "Variety" posted the audio of her meltdown...and it's intense:

Show producer Bill Geddie ends up getting involved...

He tells Elisabeth she's a PROFESSIONAL, and that she has to go back on.

He also takes Elisabeth's side, and agrees that Barbara went too far.

Elisabeth finally agrees to go back on, and she and Barbara make up on the air.

...After the audio was posted, Elisabeth apologized for her language.

Have YOU ever had a melt down at work?

Do you think Barbara Walters went too far?

After the audio was released, Elisabeth apologized for her language, saying, quote, "I used big battle words (one in particular that I am not proud of and am sorry for using in the heat of trying to defend the lives of the unborn)."
