What does it matter what these celebrity blacks, who made their money off of whites think? Who the hell cares what Oprah thinks? It seems her black brain only decided to come out her month AFTER her show was over, which was mostly watched by white, middle class housewives. If she flapped those gums of hers then..she would have lost ratings and become insignificant way before now.

She was handpicked by her handlers to be the black female Phil Donahue.

BTW,remember her and Gail going on a road trip to try to keep her network afloat,and neither one of them being able to figure out how to pump gas? That was freaking hilarious![/b]

I never watched her show. I did like her in the movie "the color purple"

Funny thing is tho..I liked a lot of black actors. I used to love whoopie goldburg. I remember when she used to do standup and was hardly known. It wasnt until it seemed "the thing to do" was show your political side, that I noticed what a bunch of racists and bigots they are. I have never seen a white artist come out against the blacks, like these blacks do against the whites. I guess because they think they have made something of themselves, it is fine to do that. I hope they enjoy themselves, because now when I see their faces on TV the channel changes..and forget movies. I wouldnt pay a dime to see any of them. Instead of helping their race move forward..they are moving it backward.

When I was about twenty-one I had enough free time to finally watch Phil Donahue during one summer break. I didn't understand the appeal. I didn't understand what Marlo Thomas ever saw in him.

And I don't remember Oprah and Gail's road trip. I haven't caught more than a few seconds of her on the television for many years. I can't stand her.

I no longer hear people around me say, "Oprah said." I've chosen a better circle of friends.

I didn't think you watched it. Oprah is a big part of the culture and hard to avoid.


As for Marlo Thomas... My mother scarred my development when she gave me the "Free to Be You and Me" album when I was eight. With cheerful songs sung by Marlo Thomas and Alan Alda I barely recovered. I learned that a young girl didn't need a prince and boys could want dolls for birthday presents.

Have you ever forgiven her? In her defense,she probably grew up in the 60's and didn't know any better.

BTW,I wonder if anybody ever did any follow-up on her and Phil's off-sprung to see if they ever attended a southside school for even one day,and for how they turned out in life? For example,how old were they when they were arrested for the first time,and how old were they when they committed suicide by overdose?

I read Donahue's book years ago. When he divorced his wife the teenaged boys lived with him and their daughter lived with their mother. Everybody was raised strict Catholics.

He and Marlo Thomas had no kids of their own...they were a little long in the tooth by the time they got married.
