Oprah Takes A Big First Step
As I wrote about last week, Oprah had basically shunned the 12 year old girl who first reported the abuse allegations at OWLS. The only contact with the family had been a 2 minute phone call Oprah had with the girl's mother.
The 12 year old had been excluded from every activity in the school, and faced recriminations because of being a whistle blower. Oprah had assured the family that she would come visit them, but had never done so.
That all changed yesterday as Oprah flew to South Africa and met with the girl and her parents for about two hours. Oprah turned on her charm and must have done some serious ass kissing because the girl's father in an interview with Kneepads Magazine said, "Oprah looked beautiful and was so easy to talk to. It went very smoothly." Now how many people believe Kneepads went to South Africa? Oprah kissed her ass, and then had someone from Kneepads give the man a call while he was still counting the money in his hand.
Although the dad was happy things got resolved, he actually seemed more excited about the big end of year party. "I am so excited because we were invited to the end-of-year school party, which will be on Tuesday," the father said. "The other pupils and families knew about the party, but we were never told. So it was a big surprise for us when Oprah asked us to join the party."
One thing is for certain. If Oprah is in charge of the party, everyone is getting a new car and gets to have Dr. Phil stay with them for a week. Rachael Ray isn't included in the package because she can't leave her husband home alone.
So much spin I'm getting dizzy.
ReplyDeleteDr. Phil won't be included in the package either. She hates him now, because he wasn't grateful enough to her.
This entire saga is so disturbing on so many levels!
ReplyDeleteA big thumbs down to Queen Oprah and Kneepads Magazine!
can you say "Huge Settlement"
ReplyDeleteHmmm is it "Oprah takes a big step" or, "Oprah writes a fat check after hearing what public opinion thinks of her"?
ReplyDeleteIs Kneepads Magazine Oprah's, or is that what Ent calls People Magazine?
ReplyDeleteI like People.
lorelei: it's what ent calls People magazine and Larry King.
ReplyDeleteHow anyone can look at Oprah without seeing the scuzzy, bitchy behavior she's infamous for is beyond me. Too bad they haven't slapped a lawsuit on her ass - in LA, or NYC or what ever home she's 'living' in now.
ReplyDeleteEnt, see? You tryin to get me riled up. you know I always get mad when I see Oprah and her PR machine.
ReplyDelete(grumble grumble)
The other pupils and families knew about the party, but we were never told.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...kinds lends some credence to the whole "they were shunned for being whistle blowers" thing....talk about ass covering!
ahahaha kneepads magazine. if this is true, I LOVE that the girl didn't even know about the party. why would she not get to go? that's so awful.
ReplyDeleteGod, I hate satan, I mean, Oprah.
ReplyDeleteSatan, Oprah same thing you said it, la.
ReplyDeletelol@la
ReplyDeleteI have never liked Oprah. Don't consider her a good reporter. She is just like Barbara Walters.
The woman has loads of money so don't you think she would settle this quiet nicely for her benefit.
