Winfrey said the audience members were chosen because their friends or family had written about their need for a new car.
How much of a loser do you have to be where your F&F write to a freakin TV show about how you need a car. If I had a talk show I would have invited all the same people and explained work+saving=car and then explained how the undoubtedly fat audience could lose weight by "walking" or "biking".

Yes, well, Oprah is a fat enabler herself that drives housewives into thinking all kinds of crazy **** is ok. And that Dr. Phil is a nutsack too.

I was recently at an amusement park. I bet the ratio of people on thoes rascal scooters for semi handicapped people was probably 1 out of 20 so it was pretty high. Not one person on the scooters was even close to in shape and would say about 75% of the people on the motorized vehicles were grossly overweight. See any correlation?

Yeah, uh thanks for the tip. I never really watch any kind of shows on TV, except sports but somehow Ive managed to become disgusted with these two. I guess because of their mass followings.

Well, regardless of whether one likes Oprah or her audience, it's nice to see her giving back something to some of those who put here where she is.

Looks to me that Oprah did not spend $.01 on this deal, it was all Pontiac.

There was little info give on the other stories, but I would say there is a good chance that the show just convinced some business to donate in exchange for the publicity.

Billionaire Oprah didn't do jack Sh*t. Pontiac DONATED the cars. And proabably paid Oprah a ton of money to be the company that get's the advertising too. Phuck Oprah! Phuck her up her stupid FAT ass.

Yeah, she pisses me off. I guess she is always giving things away on her show. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for philanthropy, but she goes about it in a bit of an "attention whore" kind of way.... making sure everyone knows about it.

Has anyone else ever named their magazine after themselves and then put their own picture on the cover of EVERY issue. I know it is her magazine, but how about a little humility.

Yah well i'm still pretty upset about the purchase.... i was wanting to check out all the Acadian pictures inside, but when i get the mag all the pages are stuck together and it smell kinda funny too. :confused: :mumble:
You promised me a signature on the magazine but you didn't promise you'd leave anything else of yours on it either..... :monkey:
