Members ~bl~ Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 I think Oprah is used to fans who LOVE her and take her every word as the truth. Seeing people react in the opposite way will be a complete shock to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wingwalker Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 Hershey's kisses with caramel are to die for ( I love caramal). Might have to go buy me a bag tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 While I agree that people are crazy for going after her in this "Save Our Soaps" campaign or whatever you want to label it, I kind of get a little enjoyment of seeing Oprah squirm in this scenario. People talk about Frons and dangling carrots in front of naive fans.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 I love the caramel kisses too. dragonflies that just means more dark chocolate for me...(though I really don't like super dark chocolate, due to it being too bitter.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 I love how Oprah shot it on the camera phone.... kind of felt like she was in Peapack. Aww the memories..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 Yeah, I don't see why the people campaigning are crazy. Oprah was targeted because she cultivated this image for 20 years of being champion of all that is good and true, the benefactor of all womanhood who only talks about emotional nourishment, artistic integrity, and quality in all aspects of life. She grew a following of people who would buy a book if she told them to, see a movie, and watch one of her Doctor spin offs just on her say so. So of course they would turn to her for help in the same way they turn to her for guidance in everything. Her response is "no money, honey". That's fair, but it wasn't unfair for them to see her as the person she wanted to be seen as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 It must have been that bad for Oprah to make a video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted April 22, 2011 Members Share Posted April 22, 2011 I found Oprah's statement very refreshing and I love that she cut to the chase. ("If there was a penny to be made...") I know people like to think that she's Jesus but it isn't her job to save souls AND soap operas too. Her network has its OWN struggles (<--you see how I...) and the women who aren't home watching soaps are the women who aren't home watching her brand of gynocentric programming either. She should air daytime reruns of this however: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3MYdnNOJm8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
