As you have already seen in my
older chat post here titled "Oprah: The Democrat Program", Oprah Winfrey has been no fan of U.S. military troops nor has she even extended her TV show to profile America's best on any given day. While post-service Veterans do have wide and far reaching national issues that virtually any patriotic audience in America could relate to, even a bunch of psychotic women with way, way, way too much time on their hands who largely make up the devotee-squads of Oprah's studio audiences. Now THERE's a novel idea for a TV show: a bunch of left alone women and their celebrity counterparts all gathered in a TV studio fixating and obsessing over themselves day in and day out, no matter how repititive, no matter how uninteristing, no matter how unproductive. Go Figure !! Don't get me wrong, I like Oprah as a person and she has done a lot single handedly to change the look of Black women everywhere in this country from the excuse factory Aunt Jemima crowd with 300 kids with no job all before the age of 25, into a true makeover of the ICON career and business woman who can do it all and make money at it. This has been a true public service all by itself Oprah, so you can stop right there. We knew your kind was out there, we were just waiting for one of you to show yourselves. But it's here that Oprah starts crossing the line into something else. At what point does Oprah Winfrey make ENOUGH money, exactly, so that we can start seeing LESS of her instead of more?? The same can be said of spinoffs Rachel Ray and Dr. Phil. TV is rapidly descending in this country into a freefall of brain-dead and Jackass on a scale that we have never really seen before in such a sweeping way taking over the networks. They are forcing just about any stupid idea that comes along in the producers food chain, with the most predominate categories largely coming from "reality shows" and "news" shows. Oprah Winfrey is about to start a new hairbrained show called The Big Give. Why I just don't know. Apparently she feels the need to be in our faces every waking hour of the day like a bad email chain letter that refuses to die on the Internet. Which then brings up the next subject of whether or not Oprah Winfrey just plain has BiPolar Disorder and she wants everybody to know it. Like it's not enough to just make a lot of money in a multi-million dollar media empire which already has so much money that entire audiences in her studio receives one of the same in large and expensive gifts. So now here comes the second TV show that the rest of us are not exactly wanting. 10 contestants are handed a big wad of money and have to find individuals to spend it on in a race format to make the dreams come true of those individuals. Well.........WHY ??? And then the winner of this race wins $1 million dollars for themselves. All of this while there is a war going on and troops are bankrupting into homeless shelters everywhere, not necessarily of their own doings. If Oprah has such a commitment to the idea of charity, then why not just set a few up as she has been doing on other projects such as those in New Orleans, etc. --- but also be inclusive of the troops and the Veterans too? And is it me, or is there just way, way too much money exchanging hands here in the pursuit of "entertainment" and where Oh where is all of this money coming from? Her? There ought to be a more fair and standardized way to have somebody's dreams come true. We are getting "talk shows" and "news shows" and "reality shows" thrown at us whether we want them or not, with more and more of it taking on personal whims, idle and meaningless chatter, and just people saying and doing any ole dumb thing that comes into their heads to artificially create broadcast time to sell to advertisers. Consider the fact that I saw a CNN news report the other day on Angelina Jolie's apparent new pregnancy as she whisked by reporters sporting a new baby bump. Get this: CNN felt the need to have not one, not two, but THREE freaking "correspondents" (whoever they were), all taking turns and occupying up to 5 full minutes of Blah, Blah, Blah all to explain to me the viewer that Angelina is pregnant yet again. Lucky for me I lifted this by accident from the CNN website as I refuse to pay for cable TV for this endless stream of JUNK to tie up my life. The Matt Lauer show in the morning is now touted as a "comedy schtick" which it isn't, but if you follow the commercial advertising, this is how they try and deceive people to watch. America is drowning in more Shit-Brain than what most of us can even handle in any one day, and Oprah Winfrey is glad to take those of us who she routinely SNUBS as part of the viewing population, along for the ride whether or not we would like to go along. Hey Oprah: there are Veterans out here. Take a valium and get real. Sue Frasier, VEV 1970 Army Signal Corps national activist/protester staff Blogger, VFJ |
