It isn't support for the Palestinian cause. It's anti-Semitism cloaked in respectability.
When you think about it, this pro-Palestinian bias in the entertainment industry goes back quite a long way; - decades. I distinctly recall Vanessa Redgrave receiving her Oscar at the Academy Award ceremonies, using her acceptance speech as a podium for a very long-winded anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian promotional speech. At the time, her sentiments weren't widely received as approvingly as they might be today.
What is even more astounding to me is to witness an industry which has so many Jewish people in it, endorsing anti-semitic and anti-Israel propaganda! But then, I've never understood how Jewish people could ever belong to the Democrat party, or be liberals anyway.
To be sure, Oprah isn't Jewish, so she's playing the liberal "victicrat" card all of the time. People on her show are nearly always whining victims, or they are celebrities endorsing the victim card.......not very different from Howard Dean telling us all how it is that "people of color" can't make it in the Republican Party!
For pete's sake! George W. Bush has been a powerhouse in elevating outstanding non-white, non-European Americans to positions of power, responsibility and influence throughout the top posts in his administration!

She did just that already several months back on a show featuring the lives of 30 year old women in countries acros the world. Among them, a Jordanian woman and a woman from another Arab country.
The gist of their stories made their lives and life in general in their countries sound close to paradise...
I was making choking and gagging noises during those portions of the program...
