“O” Empire Expands…Again
January 16th, 2008
Is there anything Oprah can’t do? Award-winning TV show, magazines, movies, radio, Broadway, upscale schools in Africa. By 2009, look for the Oprah Winfrey Network. No lie. The media mogul partnered with Discovery Health Channel to create an Oprah-branded TV station. They’ll handle distribution, but O’s at the controls for everything else.
“We’ll deal with topics such as money, health and relationships. I want to create a niche, a place where people can go to feel better about their lives,” Winfrey told reporters during a conference call Tuesday.
What next??? Man, if Oprah could buy the world and slap her name on it, she probably would. Go, O!

[…] Here’s another interesting post I read today by sgilliam […]
I knew this was coming! She’s just building her empire. She has plans to leave her mark. She’ll be remebered as one of the most if not the most successful woman(black or white)in North America.
The “O” is powerful. I heard she was going to rename it “OWN” as in “Oprah Winfrey Network”. This is great! She IS the definition of a mogul!
This is a MAJOR accomplishment. The first Black Woman in HISTORY to OWN her OWN cable network!
Ca-ching! She was already richer than all of Black hollywood combined. Now with her own network nobody can’t touch her. Haters take a big long sip of the hater punch cause you’re gonna need a big glass to swallow this…lol.
This woman is on top of her game… She’s done it all. Forbes magazine named her the worlds’ most influencial person… Go Oprah!!! Man…She should run for president–um sure she would win
“O” when we take the letter “O” it’s mean number 15 in the alphabeticale other so no one can’t tape that number But”Oprah” she’s number one in my book she’s my inpiration as a Black man from a difrent country much luv I have for her I’ll take to run for president in Haiti im sure she would win she’s my heroe my wishes of life is to met her in person I cant wait for that “O” you the chimp I lun you……….
Big up Oprah. Much respect from dah side yah. Yuh ratings inna Jamaica large. Bless up mi Nubian Queen!
A little while ago i would have been excited for her, however, now my opinion is she is one of the biggest racists! i wish more people would see this and completly boycott her
I am so happy for her and wish her nothing but the best. I am glad that she is owning her own station about time some rich black person but us on the map in TV world in this day of age.
I want to know why “NO MORE OPRAH” said she is rascist? Is there something we dont know about her?
All I see is a black woman doing her thang but doing it big!! Go Girl, may God Bless you. Keep God first Oprah! If you dont you will fall hard. But go Go!!
Oprah has totally grasped the American Dream by taking what you love to do and have it work for you. Unfortunately, all women cannot embrass their dreams do to limitations placed in their lives, that’s why I thank Oprah for setting the goal to be all you can be and not letting anyone hold her back. If being “OprahLike” was a disease, I would love to be a victim.
When I read about this yesterday in the Wall Street Journal, I was truly amazed but, I really wasn’t shocked. lmao This woman is soooo powerful it only seems right that she would have her own network. I heard some white woman say that she’s surprised that Oprah doesn’t have her own country! lmao “O” will probably get that NEXT. Ya neva know. lol
She’s inspiring- a BLACK billionaire business mogul who was raised in poverty and abuse-if she can make it no one else has excuses not to.
^^^^^
Exactly, we black folks can NO LONGER blame whitey for holding us back when we have ppl like Oprah as an example of what any of us can achieve.
I ain’t mad at that, I’m all for it! She truely is inspiring.
“We’ll deal with topics such as money, health and relationships. I want to create a niche, a place Bigblackconnect.com where people can go to feel better about their lives,” Winfrey told reporters during a conference call Tuesday.

There is no happiness like that of being loved by your these returning vnhxtrrpczayd was very pleasant or desirable no magnet drew me.
I’m sick of Oprah and her judgemental ass! She does a lot of good things for black people but she just always has something to say about stuff she isn’t involved in. How can she judge things she’s not apart of?? Other than that she should continue to do humanitarian like things but she just needs to learn to keep her mouth shut!!!
Oprah I respect you and everything that you do. Some of our black people forget were they came from. GOD Blessed you and you are suppose to Bless others. Stay REAL!!
