Since Palin was on her show and her ratings finally had a good day
Oprah can see the writing on the wall (finally) and understands
the painful truth that people would rather see Palin than her.

Oprah   November 20th, 2009 - 12:22 pm

I am ending my show because I now see that supporting Obammy makes me an absolute IDIOT!

Gonna go pout in my LA MANSION!

Mark   November 20th, 2009 - 12:23 pm

It’s amazing how many people’s lives obviously revolve around this woman. Amazing and sad.

Jill   November 20th, 2009 - 12:29 pm

Good riddance. I never watched the fat broad to begin with.

Chris Matthews   November 20th, 2009 - 12:32 pm

Oprah knows what happened to her show. It tanked after she endorsed who she called “the One”, Barry Obowma. She knows Barry only one due to ACORN and also knows Obowma will probably be tossed from office well before 2012, so she is saving face and will exit stage left. Nothing more to this other than my report. We here at MSNBC are starting to do some investigative reporting. Whatever that is.

Now Orca has more time to worship her crystals.

Oprah definitely made a huge mistake endorsing who she called “The One”, but she isn’t totally stupid. She knows Obama is a fool and will be tossed by America soon, so she is getting the hell out.

Her mission got accomplished, being an instrument getting Maobummercorn into The Oval office.
Trinty Church they both attended together, don’t forget. (that’s a real connection)

Today, search: Stern/Pastor Manning “interview” (four part 45 min.long)
Also: Pastor Manning “invite” (that’s the latest video I’ve seen of Manning)

JJ   November 20th, 2009 - 12:37 pm

I don’t know how their going to do it but I’m sure it’s Bushs fault.

Brie Bart   November 20th, 2009 - 12:37 pm

Boycott Racist NBA, until they hire Latins, Whites and Asians!!! We defeated racist Oprah now we move on to boycott all black films and black sports!!

JF   November 20th, 2009 - 12:39 pm

How cares what this fat bubble butt does. Did anybody but idiots watch her show anyway.

David A.   November 20th, 2009 - 12:39 pm

Oprah just didn’t want to share the wealth anymore. She was tired of only making a portion, she wants it all, which is why she is moving to her own network. I hope she fails there also.

Much prayer, hahaha, who did she pray to, Obama.

CommonSense   November 20th, 2009 - 12:53 pm

This lady is giving a 2 year window to say “Good bye”! She’s expecting it to increase her viewership over 24 months which will lead to her hopeful ability to increase Ad revenue that will be an increase of millions and millions over the next 2 years. Very transparent and sad actually.
She has become an elitist and too big for her own “Blue Collar” shoes. She lost touch with her demographic and attached herself to the worst POTUS EVER in the history of this country. That will be what she is ultimately remembered for. Even now there are stories about Michelle Obama throwing Oprah under the bus now that she’s no longer useful.

Poetic Justice for sure.
This is a CONSERVATIVE COUNTRY Oprah!!! You should have known that. Good bye.

claspur   November 20th, 2009 - 1:08 pm

Never even watched The Color Purple….

Saw tape before when that moron Tom Cruise jumped-around like an albino monkey on the couch though. lmao What an idiot.

claspur   November 20th, 2009 - 1:13 pm

JJ can type shit, but I can’t mention Tom Cruise jumping around on Oprah’s couch like an albino munkey?

Come-on Bortbort….that’s what I call selective censorship.

TearEmUp   November 20th, 2009 - 1:16 pm

Here is some irony for you folks. Oprah is quitting in 2011. The same year taxes on “the rich” are supposed to increase. Say what you will about Oprah, she is a very smart business person. She is getting out to avoid paying the taxes from the Obama administration. Ironically, the very same administration she helped get into office, is the reason she is quitting her show

Jerry   November 20th, 2009 - 1:51 pm

Great, two years of boo hooing. GOOD BYE already.

JoeKidd   November 20th, 2009 - 1:53 pm

One “O” down and one “O” to go…

BJC   November 20th, 2009 - 2:01 pm

Don’t be surprized if Oprah the narcissist doesn’t run for Vice President with the Obama narcissist…

Oprah   November 20th, 2009 - 2:08 pm

I have a much larger refrigerator in my LA mansion. It holds tons of fried chicken. And on my own network, I can have the cameras shoot me from the neck up only.

tiredofit2010   November 20th, 2009 - 2:08 pm

BJC November 20th, 2009 – 2:01 pm

Don’t be surprized if Oprah the narcissist doesn’t run for Vice President with the Obama narcissist…

I wouldn’t count on that one…rumor has it when she went to the white house to interview MO she got the very cold shoulder…

H2K   November 20th, 2009 - 2:14 pm

Thanks to Obama, there’s more people out of work who can stay home and watch her goofy show. So, it can’t be a ratings issue.

EEuro   November 20th, 2009 - 2:22 pm

I am not a racist but instinctively when I see a bl@ck on tv, I switch channel.

EEuro   November 20th, 2009 - 2:25 pm

Isn’t it ironic that the most powerful people in America are all black and they are still blaming racism.

How far are they gonna push?

brent   November 20th, 2009 - 2:38 pm

Hopefully she sees the light. Her ratings have dropped so much since she showed herself as a racist and hangs out with her terrorist friend Obama. Hopefully she moves to S. Africa to be with her girls she loves more than American girls. Good riddence.

Sylvia   November 20th, 2009 - 3:09 pm

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

John   November 20th, 2009 - 3:10 pm

Good riddance, to the Obama worshiping zealot. Too bad the Obama show hasn’t ended too.

Brie Bart   November 20th, 2009 - 3:10 pm

I see a Black a take precautions and avoid them. Blacks Kill Whites, Latins and Asians everyday.

Vic   November 20th, 2009 - 3:16 pm

Her ratings continue to go down just like Obowma’s. They’ve both turned out to be nothing but a couple of O-downers!

It’s good that she finally got the message.

BUB-BYE!

Dashark Sea   November 20th, 2009 - 3:18 pm

Absolutely Forbidden For Patriotic Americans to support or watch any Black film, music or sport.

alice   November 20th, 2009 - 3:23 pm

Sounds like Sarah Palins reasons for leaving office. Seems to me they both saw how the public is viewing them. Maybe they both are being honest. IDK

Fat Stealing Gang   November 20th, 2009 - 3:27 pm

Oprah, please see us we can use your fat.

HolyCow Batman   November 20th, 2009 - 4:39 pm

Retire in 2011…..Just in time to run for president in 2102. The possibilities are endless and scare the crap out of me!!

Ken Royall   November 20th, 2009 - 4:50 pm

These morons saying this is “hard to believe”? Not at all, the show’s ratings have been dropping steadily and the show is spent. 25 years of nonsense is enough. It was bound to peter out at some point.

Czarina Winfrey   November 20th, 2009 - 5:02 pm

It could happen.

anon   November 20th, 2009 - 5:53 pm

I’ll bet she loses 25 pounds in the first 6 months after leaving Chicago.

JP   November 20th, 2009 - 6:09 pm

Wish she would leave NOW and take daddy mac long legs with her!

livingfortruth   November 20th, 2009 - 7:10 pm

What, that she is a racist? She admitted it, “I never supported a candidate until now.” Why would that be? Hmmm? Cause she is a racist and everyone knows it, even those who will soon be feigning contempt with the fact that I speak the truth that she is a racist.

Good Riddance   November 20th, 2009 - 8:18 pm

Hopefully you leave the country. Take Barbara Walters with you – funny, I’ve never seen a vampire like Babs Age – I thought they were young for a few hundred years.

Kevin   November 20th, 2009 - 10:26 pm

Who G.A.S.

duncan   November 20th, 2009 - 10:45 pm

Dont let the door hit you in the AZZZZZzzzzzzz

Gandhi's Fist   November 21st, 2009 - 12:39 pm

Who is Oprah?

Dean Sanderson   November 23rd, 2009 - 2:19 am

the only person I can imagine filling Oprah’s shoes would be Ellen (she already goes by her first name and everything)
