Oprah Winfrey is ending her talk show in 2011.

I honestly can't believe it. But what really got my attention was the comments left here; not a single positive one. Is Oprah Winfry really that detested?

[Lord J Esq]

Well, she's a successful, famous, wealthy, popular, and powerful fat black female. And she backed Obama. You figure it out...

[ZeaLitY]

Damn. I'd better hurry up and send in my Chicago dream for fulfillment.

[Thought]

Well, she's ... fat ...

She is?

Regarding Oprah:  I think that, on the internet at least, she has gained some infamy for lending her platform the anti-vac stance and "The Secret", among other things.  One Newsweek article in particular got everybody pretty riled:

Oh yes, Dr. Oz. How could I forget?

[Sajainta]

The Secret is some of the biggest bullshit I've ever heard of and I disagree with her quite a bit on varying topics, but I do admire Oprah for her perseverance and personal strength.  She went through hell as a child and as a teenager and for her to get through that and become so successful despite all of that horror is nothing short of remarkable.

Definitley gets my seal of disapproval.

I may be a racist, sexist, religious bigot and right wing retard, but I still disapprove of killing people.

WHOA there J, You don't talk about Fight Club!

WHOA there J, You don't talk about Fight Club!

Nah, it's okay, that's just the second rule. It is the first rule that you have to pay attention to.

[Lord J Esq]

Heh. Speaking of pop culture in the hate thread. I think Fight Club is the most overrated movie of our time. I can't stand it.

[ZeaLitY]

"Male power fantasy" describes Fight Club pretty well.
