Oprah Winfrey's talk show
is broadcast in 136 different countries
A woman has sued the company behind Oprah Winfrey's TV chat show, claiming she was injured when audience members rushed to find seats at a recording. Orit Greenberg has demanded $50,000 (£25,100) in damages after allegedly being pushed down a flight of stairs.
She said this caused her "severe and permanent injuries" and claimed the crowd in the studio was not properly controlled by Harpo Studios staff.
The production company declined to comment on her allegations.
Harpo Studios told the Associated Press it did not make statements about impending legal cases.
Ms Greenberg claimed she was hurt in December 2006 while attending a recording of the programme in the US city of Chicago.
Audience members were told to sit wherever they wanted, which led to the rush, according to the legal documents she has filed.
Given her audience, why would think there wouldn’t be pushing and shoving. “Typical...”
I would suffer severe and permanent injury’s from just seeing her show.

I also heard that Oprah’s seat is suing for cruel and unusual punishment.
You all get a new car except one! please remember to whine about paying your taxes on it.
” Greenberg has demanded $50,000 (£25,100) in damages “
I would demand $50,000 just to sit through a mass of sweaty fat women, crooning over another fat sweaty broad.
Society is so sick.
Someone started an ugly rumor that Oprah was patted down at O’hare and TSA found 65 pounds of crack.
I thought the subject was “Seat Rash”....never mind...
Yep. When you cater to cattle, occasionally the herd is going to stampede...
