Looks like I’ll never ever ever be first lol and Oprah Winfrey is getting her own TV network! good for her

CONGRATULATIONS Oprah!!!!

Her very first show will be analyzing male behavior after the bionic woman. Is it passion for the lover aroused by the show or is it just plain rape. To date no one can answer the question until they can bionic woman may not return.

Intense lust or rape? Tune in to OWN.

I love people who keep working & improving the brand, ie.. Oprah, Madonna, Martha Stewart.

Amber you are so right. I use to like watching her show, but now the only time I look at it is if one of my favorite celebs is on. and she is not as popular in the Black community as people would like to think. I give much props to her for doing her thing and being where she is today.

Wow, you are the voice of Black America, huh? Whether or not Black people accept Oprah (which they do in large numbers from what numbers tell us) she has changed the face of Black women in America forever. NO Black women can walk up to a newsroom and be told she can’t. No little black girl can ever dream of becoming a billionaire and be told it is impossible. No little black girl can dremam of her own network when just 40 years ago, you could not show a Black person on TV, and be told she can’t. Oprah proves Black women can. If Black people don’t accept her (as you falsely claim) so what? A successful Black person should not set out to get the approval of anyone, White or Black, instad you do what you believe despite! That is how one succeeds. Again, that is why Oprah is a Billionaire and you on a blog writing about her. She is smart enought to figure that out. You might learn a thing or two.

And she didn’t say ALL black people don’t like Oprah, either.

Oprah, you keep on moving ok? never mind the naysayers and of course there are plenty of naysayers. The more $$$$$$$ the more naysayers, LOL!!!!

Awesome!! Get to spreadin’ some goodness!!

Team Lara Croft, she never said she was the voice of Black America so please stop trying to pick a fight where it’s not needed. All she said was that people think she’s this icon for all blacks when in reality, she’s not. That doesn’t mean that people aren’t impressed by where she’s gotten - they just don’t like her or relate to her, period.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You need to reread your Buddy’s post again and see the point she was making. Why even bring up the issue that nto all Black people accept Oprah? Why? When this is a blog about oPRAH GETTING HER OWN NETWORK. Bringing up race is a sure way to try to start something and that is what you and your buddy did. What does this have to do with race. And who deternines the number of Black people who support Oprah? Did your Buddy take a poll? This so reminds me of the time when I was a substitute Teacher (volunteer) in a predominntly African-American community and so many kids complained that when they went home to do their homework, listened to a certain kind of music or spoke a certain way, some of their peers said they were “acting white”. This idea that a Balck person’s success removes them from their community is bogus and inherently offensive. Oprah does not have to represent anybody but her own convictions. And many many many Black people like Oprah. You adn your buddy are clearly bitter as you have not figured out how to do what Oprah has done which is not focusing on any communitiy’s expectation or acceptance of you but rather what you want to achieve in your own lives. Your statements are full of it and now, backed up in a corner, you claim your buddy did not mean it. So I ask you: why bring up race in this thread? Did Jared make a remark about race in his post? Was this about race? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saying that Oprah does nto represent allBlack people is a way to bring race here. And you know it. If you are going to a closed minded idiot, at least be courageous and own up to it!

I rarely watch Oprah, I don’t need my information thorugh her or any talk show host. I believe I have a sound mind to do good judgement for myself. However I watched it a fewtimes out of boredom and I must say I was not impressed at all. She had a doctor on her show to talk about ‘******’ and related issues. i couldnot understant why she continuously kept saying ‘Vajayjay’ instead of ******? I mean is it a dirty word to her? if so why do an episode on it? or was she trying to be cute? A 2 year old mumbling so would be cute, not a 50 something mature woman. Another thing I noticed about her was that she was very dominating. Even though the doctor was the guest speaker, she barely allowd him to speak. Everytime he opened his mouth, after just a few seconds Oprah would take over and start voicing her own opinion and the poor doctor had to nod along and then it would be time for commercial break and back to Oprah again.

Frankly, it didnot seem like she was enjoying the idea of someone talking on her talk show who was not her. Or she doesnot notice such obvious things.
I am all for power to women, financial success for women etc. Well , I am not buing Oprah’s saint persona. She is a business person, a good person, but not definitely saintly.
I would not go aroung sleeping on thousands of dollars worth sheets, sending a private jet to pick up my cupcakes etc if I truly want to serve the poor and unfortunate. Its not just the way of a selfless person.
And I don’t buy what she preaches either. Goodlife? What goodlife? All I see is a hugely successful business woman who binges on food , gains 50 pounds, goes on unhealthy diets and then hires some fitness guru to lose it and its big news, the fitness guru is the new IT trainer etc.
Note to Oprah, just follow a normal balanced diet and move your butt you will be ok.

She is overrated,no doubt.

Dear Amber..NEwsflash to you: going to college and getting your own magazine is not enough. You need to be an independent thinker and stand for something that is more linked to humanity and open-mindedness that your crap comment that you do not know ONE person who is Black who likes Oprah. Your gross generalization leads me to believe you are lying. I am sorry. You know not ONE Black person who likes her? How many Black people do you? And if you are Black, yes, how many of the Black people you know admitted this? AN dif so, do you not h=find it probeblmatic that not ONE of your Black peers/friends etc happens to like the most successful Black woman in America ever? And if so, what valid reason do they have for not liking her? Do they like Martha Stewart more? You are full of crap. Yes, you and your buddy did bring race here. Period. Accept it. And once you do that, you will be challenged. O sorry, you said you know one black person…ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow. And again is your post:

Sheila - She’ll become more biased. Priority to her is Black people.
***************
Obviously you know nothing about Oprah because she caters to white people. I only know 1 black person who likes her and watches her show (and I’m black).

What does catering to White people mean? She kisses their ass? She has them on their show? What what what??? And you say such a blatant accusoatory statemnent is now one that is race filled. If Oprah caters to White people when she has fns of all colors, this would be highly problematic and would go against anything her Network stands for so for you to make that charge - honey, it is a very serious charge. Give examples to how she caters to White people? Why cause she has White fans? Cuase she is nice to them when they are on her show? Does a Black singer cater to Whtie fans when their audience members are White? Does a politician cater to White voters when they get White votes? What does “cater to White people” mean?

And here is your buddy’s post: “She’ll become more biased. Priority to her is Black people.”. That is accusing Oprah of being biased adn you claim this is not a race filled commentary? Honey, you need to get a refund on that education of yours.

Team Lara Croft - YOU need to read, sweetheart. Sinna didn’t write that - that’s what we were responding too. And you want to know examples of how she caters to whites? Watch her show, read her magazine - nuff said. And please, for someone who trys to make herself an authority on all things posted on this site (and you’re supposed to be an adult), making personal attacks…really? LOL, you’re laughable.

Oh, and AGAIN, read what I said. I said I know ONLY 1 black person who likes her. NOT that I don’t know any - yet I have the reading comprehension problem? LOL. I don’t like Oprah because she’s boring, period. If you need proof, watch her show. BORING! Does that spell it out enough for you? Don’t you have some Angelina blogs to go stalk? Oh yeah, Jared hasn’t posted any yet.
