Oprah Explains Why She’s Leaving Her Show
Oprah Winfrey confirmed the news that broke yesterday afternoon – she would be ending her show. Brian Stelter reports that the talk show host told her television audience this morning, “After much prayer and months of careful thought, I’ve decided the next season, season 25, will be the last season of ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show.’” Reports say that she is ending her successful daytime talk show in September 2011.
She is expected to concentrate on OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, a cable channel that will bear her name and have its premiere in January 2011. A press release put out by Harpo (Oprah’s production company) revealed “plans to appear and participate in new programming for OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.”
