  oprah must be stopped

oprah's dominance (thanks alot ebert) and influence remains undeniable. her post-katrina shows (which included false statements by new orleans officials of child rapes) shaped america's view of the natural disaster.

but the most disturbing aspect is the lemming-like behavior of her audience, evidenced best by oprah's book club which boosts sales by ridiculous amounts. unfortunately, a smoking gun investigation (via tv tattle and lucianne.com) reveals that James Frey's "A Million Little Pieces", which zoomed up the ny times bestseller list, proves more fiction than non-fiction (kinda like the MSM)

someone with as much influence as oprah must be accountable for the things endorsed
