Oprah Leads The Pack In Frenzy To Land Interview With Maria Shriver

» 18 comments

The sordid story emerging from the collapsing relationship of Arnold Shwarzenegger and Maria Shriver has fueled a frenzy among media types for the first on-camera interview with the former first lady of California. TMZ is reporting Oprah Winfrey has the inside track. “Oprah met with Maria last week, trying to convince her to become a talk show host on Oprah’s OWN Network. We’ve also learned Maria is going to be a guest on Oprah’s final show.”

The reports that Schwarzenegger fathered a child with a member of the family’s household staff has led to an even more intense battle to land a Shriver interview, even, TMZ reports–citing unnamed sources–at NBC, which “we’re told was lukewarm on the idea of bringing Maria back a few months ago, but the network’s interested has intensified in the last week.”

MSNBC’s Chris Jansing has reported that, at this time Shriver, will not be commenting on this story. Given how the intrigue surrounding this story could likely grow, perhaps Shriver will have a change of heart regarding her comments.

    Eek !!!!!!! That hairdo !!!!

    Is Oprah going to send a chauffeur driven broom to pick her up ????

  • notsofast

    Yes, OW is always the first person to try to use, abuse and exploit another person’s tragedy in yet another attempt at self-promotion and self-aggrandizement.

  • ChrisNH

    I think Maria needs to head to the Lib Supermarket and stock up on more ‘o that ‘compassion and tolerance’ that Libs claim they’re doused in.

  • Barack Must Go

    I hope the libs really beat the living hell out of Arnold, even waterboard the bastard.

    This way when they’re finished with him Murdoch can pay him a million or so bucks to spill the past 25 years of Kennedy family dirt…..first person.

    What a long strange trip it’s been, now the ‘ real ” American will have a front seat view of what really goes on behind the ‘ Gates of Cameltoe ‘.

    Let the puching & kicking begin …..

    Mediaite, that is an awful picture of Maria. Can’t you find a better one? Poor gal.

    Words out that the Terminator fathered a child from a staff member 10 yrs ago.
    If true his name will quickly be changed to the Sperminator.

    In defense of Mediaite, they really don’t have much to work with on that. That woman has NOT aged gracefully. Too many years of Liberalism manifested as America-hate will do that to ya.

    IS THERE A BIG PACK FRENZY TO INTERVIEW MARIA SHRIVER? OR IS THIS JUST ANOTHER DISTRACTING STORY TO TAKE ATTENTION AWAY FROM THIS ILLUMINATI CONSPIRACY STORY.

    DON’T BOTHER LOOKING INTO THIS STORY. PLEASE DISTRACT FROM THIS INFORMATION WITH A COMMENT ABOUT THE NEED FOR MEDICATION OR MY FAVORITE, GET OUT YOUR TIN HAT.

    Yes Felix. We heard you when the LBRUL media was distracting with the Donald.

    Looks like Arnold wasn’t just pumping iron, he was also pumping Ethel!

    Whatev..O! Where were you with that job offer before she was separated?

    What makes Oprah believe that anyone would be interested in a talk show hosted by Maria Shriver? I guess the “Kennedy-Shriver” appeal would still work for the over 60 demographic.

    Sidenote: Interesting that in 7 years she never bothered to move to Sacramento- I would say that left a LOT of time for Arnie to pursue some extra activities. If your husband is a well know philanderer – why make it even easier ?

  • LOGICandREASON

    I want to ask an honest question:

    Does anyone here actually turn on their TV and search the channels to look for Oprah’s show, then sit down and watch it?

    I’m just trying to imagine how it would be if I did
