Oprah To Rule The World
Filed under: TV News > Oprah Winfrey
Oprah is getting her own cable network!
Called OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, the new channel will premiere next year.
In a statement, Momma O said the network "is the evolution of the work I've been doing on television all these years and a natural extension of my show."
The Oprah Winfrey Network will be part of the Discover network, taking over the Discovery Health Channel, started in 1999, which reaches 67.7 million cable and satellite homes, according to Nielsen.
What programming can we look forward to?
Oprah isn't saying just yet.
The mandate of the network, said David Zaslav, president and CEO of Discovery Communications, is "to entertain, inform and inspire people to live their best lives."
Discovery said Winfrey will have "full editorial control" over the joint venture, with responsibility for "programming, branding and creative vision."
Oprah will be the chairman of OWN.
Discovery and Winfrey will each own 50% of the network, and OWN will be an independent company.
And Oprah gets even richer!

I CAN'T STAND OPRAH.
Oprah for president!
she is taking over the world…lol
FIRST!
eeeeekkk she is taking over! (still love her)
She has turned into such a rude, black bitch….go away Oprah!
I am sorry I never liked Oprah. She is just so full of herself. "oh look at me I have so much money I am giving all my audience members stuff!!!!! how nice am I?????" I hate the fakeness of it. I have seen celebs to things for a good cause and never get publicity for it….maybe a small pic then you never hear of it again but when Oprah does it it is everywhere for like weeks. I just feel she is really fake!
Are you serious?
first
That's my girl!
She owns half the US
oprah sucks.
I LOVE Mama "O"
Oprah Please adopt me!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is she supporting him just coz he is black????
ohh First??
hotcunt is a whore!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She owns the world.
As if she needs something else with her name on it.
She's just pissed ’cause Ellen DeGeneres is kicking her ass. Her school couldnt beat the dog like she thought.
YAY! I LOVE OPRAH!
omg, now i am turning into one of those first retards
if i wnat to see black people i can just go outside, death to blacks!
What an inspiration to women especially those women of color looking for a REAL role model. Gotta love Mamma O!
Why did I think she had a hand in the Oxygen network? Great, another cable channel that I don't want but will be forced to pay for. Curses!
good now you have Bet & the Oprah channel,,,, hell !! we will even throw in a black President,,,,,,,,,,,,,, just quit complaining!!!
It's disgusting to see the anti-Oprah stuff. She has done so many positive things in the world. Haters! If she was a white man there wouldn't be anywhere near as much hate.
DEAR GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This blows, I liked the Discovery Health Channel. Why couldn't she take over one of those lame ass home shopping channels?
I thought O already owned the Oxygen channel???
The focus of the channel will be the focus of Oprah’s brand, which is to educate and inspire people to live the best life they can.

NOOOOO i love the discovery health channel
fuck oprah!
Sounds like an informmercial channel.
I yearn for the day when Oprah finally has a light bulb moment and gets over herself.
She's so early 1990s. Time to move on and be black and leave white people alone.
disucssion forum_________ why do black people call it haters when someone simply dissagrees with there opinion,,,, i find it hard to have a simple conversation with a black person, they really have a glass is 1/2 empty outlook,,,,, but im just one of dem craka haters, also,,, clinton supports minoritys much more tha Obama………. give me 3 things Obama stands for to help black people??????? i dare you
Oh great! Another channel like BET that shows Fresh Prince and Soal Train constantly! I will not be watching Monkey TV!!!
Oprah gives back. Which is more than I can say for most rich people.
A Christmas party for 50,000 orphans in South Africa. Building and furnishing homes for 250 families impacted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa. Grants totaling over $1 million to the East Asian tsunami recovery. One name is behind all of that and more - Oprah Winfrey.
To date in 2006, Oprah's Angel Network distributed more than $2.5 million to 33 organizations and projects making a difference in underserved communities. In addition, it distributed more than $16.5 million towards disaster recovery programs helping people rebuild and strengthen their lives and communities after the tsunami and Hurricane Katrina.
Oprah's Angel Network is a public charity that accepts donations.
The Oprah Winfrey Foundation
The Oprah Winfrey Foundation provides grants to not-for-profit organizations that offer educational opportunities and enhance the quality of life for children and families throughout the world.
So far in 2006, The Oprah Winfrey Foundation distributed more than $6.5 million to 18 organizations and sponsored the building of a 30,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility for The Oprah Winfrey Boys and Girls Club of Kosciusko/Attala County.
The Oprah Winfrey Foundation is a private foundation under the direction of Oprah Winfrey. Oprah Winfrey funds virtually all of its work without donations from the public.
WAIT…………….. I thought Oprah's channel was The Oxygen network
BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU PLACE YOUR VOTES, OBAMA IS A MUSLIM LIKE OSAMA …CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT CAN HAPPEN TO "US" AND I MEAN "US the USA" IF THEY GO IN CAHOOTS TOGETHER!??? ALSO THEY HAVE THE SAME INITIALS OB+OB=NO GOOD!!!!
The only difference between OBAMA and OSAMA is the letter "B+S" which stands for BULL SHIT! Don't vote the O's to power they follow the Muslim religion which is clearly ANTI-Christian and therefore for the most part ANTI-AMERICAN!!!
I LOVE OPRAH.. OPRAH FOR PRESIDENT HELL WITH CLINTON
VOTE FOR OPRAH
She gets her own channel and I cannot get NFL Network…WFT?!?!?!?
wow…i think i know this one. In 2009 everybody has to convert TV to cable or satillite. When that happens, O could just take her show to HER network. Like Howard Stern did Sirrius.
Probably Lifetime Television for Women crap and whining about everything.
im waiting________ name 3 things Obama will do to help Black America??

DON'T GET ME WRONG….HE IS A SERIOUSLY FINE LOOKING MAN AND HE CAN ROCK A SWIMSUIT WITH HIS ABS…….WHERE AM I GOING WITH THIS? WHY IS IT ALWAYS ABOUT MALE SEXUALITY WITH ME? TEE HEE….I'M A HORNY ASS GAY BOY….BUT LET'S GIVE HILLARY HER SHOT. GO HILL! HOLLA! TO THE LEFT TO THE LEFT

i love you oprah
perez u missed a "y" in discovery!
Gee! you think her face and name will be plastered all over every show? Like her magagzine. I don't dislike her, but she is a little self centered.
OH, , YAY, ,
Another opinionated channel.. JUST what we need.. Why doesn't she just glom onto the FOX channel?
Oh just great.
I LIKE Discovery Health. I CAN'T STAND Oprah!
Besides, she screwed up the Oxygen channel.
ALL her money, All her power, All her success doesn't change the fact that Oprah is a RACIST COW, and closet republican. No Wonder she backs Obama, he's black and himself a closet republican. Roseanne Barr may be nuttier than a peacan tree, but she was right about this Self Serving Racist KUNT.
Re: OBAMA BARACK is a Muslim like OSAMA B – Stop that SHIT. Obama is NOT a muslim. He's an inexperienced boob with NO real plan for the country, (he's like a snake oil charmer, selling hope in a bottle to the masses) whose getting his ass sucked by Oprah. But he's NOT a muslim…he's worse…he's a fundamentalist christian and he's trying to keep that fact under wraps, cause his progressive college educated base would be appalled. Talk about a walking talking SHITHEAD !
Re: jimmyjazz – hey freak,,,,,,, this should be a time for women to unite,,,,,,, oprah is all about $$$, i will laugh if he turns out to a terrorist musslim,,,,,,,, don't get excited im straight,, my career as an artist makes me appreciate all types of sociology.. OPRAH BUGS
Re: Tyra Cranks – FUNNY,,,,,,,,,,,, hey i read on liveleak.com that his father & grandfather actually are islamic extreemists, makes you wonder,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, i don't fucking know obviously.. if im a p-nasty blog-head, MORE WHITE PEN STUFF PEREZ -IT KILLS ME!!
This bitch needs to stop trying to take over america, this is insane, along with all the other idiots who follow her. She doesn't support Hilary, because she doesn't want to be dethrone of her "Most powerful woman in the country" title. She's jealous of her.
