5.7.12 Culture Capsule: Oprah’s Network Woes

The Huffington Post reported that the OWN network, founded by media maven Oprah Winfrey, is in trouble having lost a whopping $330 million since its inception in 2008. I personally was disappointed with the barrage of re-runs and programs and hosts that are/were already on other networks i.e. Dr. Phil. The Rosie O’Donnell show turned out to be a dud. None the less, I have high hopes that my media idol will land on her feet. ~cb
