Seems like the Oprah Winfrey Network just can't catch a break: after Friday's announcement that The Rosie Show wouldn't be coming back to the network after a low-rated first season, OWN is restructuring.
Thirty staffers are being laid off, with their duties redistributed throughout the the network and the two partners in the joint venture cabler—Discovery Communications and Oprah's own Harpo Studios.

Oprah had it going on for quite awhile. Everything she did sizzled. Looks like ‘The Change’ brought in the fizzle instead. Now that her One is in charge her success ratio is closer to Zero. Change to be deceived in sista O.
Guess all those dumb women who watched her TV show only had one hour to give each day. Not quite enough for an entire network.
That’s absolutely 1000% true. There’s an unwritten rule in entertainment that most of these idiots never follow: Never takes sides in politics because you will lose half your audience. And that’s just what these two lesbos did and half their audience is gone in a flash.
Go ahead and curse them.Does it make you feel good?
Me, I will continue to pray for them.
As far as Oprah is concerned, please forgive me if I cry a few silent tears for one specific woman’s high achievements, wasted once she “made it big”.
I was among her first few millions of fans, and it still shocks me when people just casually call her a name like “bitch”, as if that is all she ever was, or is.
It sucks to have watched her rise to the top and then fall because she forgot who was listening to her, and why.
Oprah jumped the shark when she dubbed herself a National Treasure on the cover of her O magazine. No one, not even her loyal, was buying that crap.
Horrid little channel. I don’t know how they expected anyone to watch, with the pap they air. (Even worse pap than regular networks, if you can imagine.)
Well Oprah did start out as a whore..........
Nice news!
“Go ahead and curse them.Does it make you feel good? Me, I will continue to pray for them.”
Yes; to curse them and her makes me feel terrific! Who wouldn’t curse the people who were instruemental in placing this vile and evil man in a position to ruin the country? I have stopped praying for THEM. I pray for America. Saying “tsk tsk” to those who take a stand is precious, but it isn’t helpful. We wouldn’t exist if our ancestors sat around praying. They had to get pissed of and engage in some extreme dialog.
No she has not learned. Her skull is thick.

“There is my good friend, Oprah,” Obama said. “Who very early on, when I was still running, just decided that she would support this guy with a name that nobody could pronounce.”
“Just like books and skin cream,” Obama said to laughter, “when Oprah decides she likes you, then other people like you, too.”
Oh please. She was the original Jerry Springer.
Donahue - the flaming liberal - had to resort to having “baby-adults who wore diapers while being hanging out in their cribs” in an attempt to out do Oprah during “sweeps week.”
That’s how low her show was. After she knocked out Donahue she was free to cast herself as this noble person.
When she lost weight her audience left her. She gained it back and they came back. She could begin her never-ending cycle of selling weight loss/ self-help programs to the gullible, nitwit, cult of personality type people who buy a magazine from a narcissist with her picture on every cover.
She was a marketing shark with a massive soapbox platform - FREE TV for one hour at 4:00p.m. everyday.
That looks like Internet only for computers, and they are a dime a dozen, I cannot find on any cable venue.
