Oprah Refuses to Book Sarah Palin
Oprah Winfrey is choosing race over gender in an effort to deny Sarah Palin equal time on her show, according to a news flash on the Drudge Report:
BIG DILEMMA: OPRAH BALKS AT HOSTING SARAH PALIN; STAFF DIVIDED
Fri Sep 05 2008 08:55:46 ETOprah Winfrey may have introduced Democrat Barack Obama to the women of America — but the talkshow queen is not rushing to embrace the first woman on a Republican presidential ticket!
Oprah’s staff is sharply divided on the merits of booking Sarah Palin, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.
"Half of her staff really wants Sarah Palin on," an insider explains. "Oprah’s website is getting tons of requests to put her on, but Oprah and a couple of her top people are adamantly against it because of Obama."
One executive close to Winfrey is warning any Palin ban could ignite a dramatic backlash!
It is not clear if Oprah has softened her position after watching Palin’s historic convention speech.
Last year, Winfrey blocked an appearance by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, timed to a promotional tour of his autobiography.
Oprah and executive producer Sheri Salata, who has contributed thousands of dollars to Obama’s campaign, refused requests for comment.
Palin is bigger than Barack, and Oprah knows if she doesn’t give Sarah some face time, she’ll alienate her mostly female audience. Women need to stand up against this discrimination. Women have rights too. Women have the right to be heard.
Book Sarah Palin Oprah!

Your party affiliation is painfully clear.
Why should she have her on? She is not running for president, John McCain is in case you have forgot. To the best of my knowledge (I don’t watch the show) she has not had Joe Biden on either. She has also not refused John McCain (not that he would want go on the show) so this has nothing to do with race or gender or about equal time? Your argument is ignorant, and that’s being nice.
No great loss for Sarah Palin, I never liked Oprah anyway. Sarah is for real, unlike MS. Clinton, made up by the democratic liberal media pushing their agenda. Go Sarah Palin.
I am guessing that the owner of this site might just be a little bit of Republican supporter. ha ha
Palin was a gimmick chosen because she was a woman and redneck and cultist Christian – suits much of the Republican base. She certainly was chosen for any abilities.
But hey, its your site, so have fun pushing the GOP causes.
IT’S TIME FOR AMERICA TO DENY OPRAH ACCESS TO OUR TELEVISION SETS
Oprah gives advice on relationships, but has a boy friend who is a
door mat … gives advice on marriage, but has never been married …
gives advice on child rearing, but has no children … gives advice on
Obama, but was a member of Jeremiah Wright’s anti-American racist
church for several years. Now, her white women’s audience, which made
Oprah rich, wants to know more about Sarah Palin, but Oprah says NO.
No Oprah, No Wright, no Farrakahn, no Ayers, no Rezko,
no mean Michelle, NOBAMA
Gotta agree with the 2 posters above. But i’m pretty sure all 3 of us will be deleted soon.
My god…. You americans need to stop being os one sided. You need to look at it from both parties and pick the right one. Not just oh im a conservative so thats how im voteing… The damn writter of this site is the worst yet…
Some of your stuff are pretty ignorant. Maybe Oprah doesn’t want to book Palin is because she simply isn’t a supporter of her, not because she’s playing the race card. You’re so ignorant.
