Oprah caused her own downfall when she showed what a racist she was during the last election.
My take is that there are a lot of older white women who have woken up to the fact that they got “taken” by Oprah on Obama. They are not happy with her.
Add to this that those who aren’t in that group are then natural Obama voters, and therefore not smart enough to find OWN in all the noise in the upper reaches of cable.
Double whammy.
a lot longer ago, oprah had an episode I could not believe what she was doing. all the white women were told to stand and apologize to the black women for slavery. i refused to watch the show after that. none of the women in that studio owned slaves.
Waiting for Orpah to sink slowly back into the mire from which she arose.
I agree. The moment she publicly supported Obama was her undoing. Up until then she was rather well liked but then came the moment that she alienated 50% of her audience. She has never recovered.
