Oprah Refuses Sarah Palin

Nope, the media is not in the tank for Obama. Not at all. :)

There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over.

Unless it is Obama of course. Full details here.

This would be noteworthy if Oprah was considered an objective news show. It is her own show, she is free to have whoever she wants on the show. It is no secret she supports Obama.

I think this has more to do with ummm...race

I 100% agree with you, but don't you think since the vast majority of her viewers are women she is making a HUGE mistake?

Maybe Ellen will have her on. I like Ellen's show better, anyway.

She will definitely miss out on a lot of viewers but I don't think she really cares to be honest. The woman is filthy rich and is apparently more concerned about staying out of the election process as she says (or supporting Obama depending on how you view it).

I think Ellen is going to have her on her show and it's going to be better anyway. Oprah is being a fool.

She hasn't had ANYONE on since they have started running, she had obama on before he started running.. It would be stupid for her to have Palin on after she got behind Obama and she would be hammered and called sexist if she asked tough questions..
