TV Stations Don't Wanna Pay For The Big O
The recession is finally taking it's toll on the talk show queen!
If Oprah decides to renew her distribution deal with CBS Television in 2011, she may be seeing a smaller paycheck! TV stations have had it with Harpo's large price tag that comes with the rights to air the daytime talk show.
Variety explains:
“Stations have made it clear to [Winfrey's production company] Harpo that if she does come back, they’ll significantly reduce the license fees they pay. Station revenues are down 40 percent to 50 percent, but they’re paying license fees projected on revenue remaining the same. Plus, her ratings are going down. She’s still the queen, but that’s an enormous problem.”
Ouch!
But will Oprah even notice a pay decrease? She's got millions upon millions in the bank!

S-E-K-S-I
She's got billions, not millions!
Miss Oprah is so afraid of anyone finding out she is a LESBIAN, that if you work for her in ANY capacity (whether a Janitor all the way up to a CEO) you MUST sign a lifetime contract to NEVER discuss the goings on in the company or her life. The IDIOTS that actually sign the contract (a friend of mine works on her magazine )must also keep their mouth shut after they leave her employ. It is a lifetime contract!!!
i think she's gonna start her own tv-channel… you just wait and see
She'll live
is she having an orgasm in that picture?
Aaaaw, po' Oprah…
The show is getting boring. Maybe it's time for Oprah to call it a day.
Greedy old cow should retire!!
.
Her show is lame, boring and selfindulgent. No wonder nobody watches it anymore.
I used to watch Oprah and I really liked her; but, I get tired of her doing the same old crappy shows ALL THE TIME!!! On top of that, she has let her money go to her head and I feel she really doesn't connect with her audience, and it seems to me, she just doesn't care anymore!!!
She needs to go to her schools in Africa and teach all of "her children" there!!!
She is richer than God, take a break o…spend some money for God's sakes..or give some away to real people on the street.
I get sick of her make-over shows, cooking shows, fashion shows, Gayle finding the next best tasting pizza, hamburger, or twinkie, sick of the cast shows like this week she is showing the cast of "Nine"…..who cares.
She needs some fresh people working for her, the show is stagnant.
Ya know, sorry Oprah, times have changed. You have a ton of money but a lot of people don't. People are not sympathetic to your BS shows.
It is obvious you do no know how to reach your audience.
at this point why does she even need to get paid? its absurd!
GOOD! HOPEFULLY OPRAH WILL GO AWAY! SHE IS A SELFISH HEARTLESS BITCH WHO ONLY CARES ABOUT HERSELF AND HER RATINGS AND WILL USE ANYONE TO GET TO THE TOP! FUCK YOU OPRAH! I HATE YOUR FUCKING GUTS! AT LEAST BE GOOD LOOKING! YOU LOOK LIKE A FUCKING ORANGUTAN!!! AT LEAST THAT WHITNEY HOUSTON YOU HATE IS PRETTY AGAIN! I HATE YOU OPRAH!!!! DIIIIIIIE!!!!
nobody watchs tv anymore its all bullsh!t on tv, i could care less about that witch oprah.
Why not retire? She has proven herself already and she could use some free time as a reward.
Everybody's got to serve somebody, as Dylan would say, and times are tough all over.
Good for them! I'm sick of her fat hypocrite racist phoney A$$ ! Get her off the air so it can smell sweeter! BIG OLD SWINE!
