Oprah Winfrey has refused to book Sarah Palin on her show. Oprah issued this statement this morning:

"The item in today’s Drudge Report is categorically untrue. 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."

Oprah claims she won’t use her "show as a platform for any of the candidates," yet she had Barack Obama on her show in January of 2005, and again in October of 2006, and she publicly endorsed Obama for President because he is black.

Now Sarah Palin comes along representing the majority of women in America, but because she’s white, Oprah won’t give her equal time until after the election. Where’s the fairness doctrine when you need it?

Oprah should be ashamed. She’s betraying her mostly female audience, and they shouldn’t stand for it.

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 ET

Oprah 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!

At the House of Hope on the South Side in Chicago, 7,000 people attended the Bernie Mac funeral, many of which were celebrities, and political figures. Missing from the audience were Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama. Mac spoke at an Obama event in July, yet Obama was too busy vacationing in Hawaii to attend Mac’s funeral. Very disrespectful.

Mac was respected, loved by many, and tried to inspired others to become better people. At least those people who deserved Mac’s friendship and support showed up to his funeral to say goodbye one last time.

WOW! Oprah announces she is doing Oprah’s Favorite Things Show, and the audience completely lost it! COMPLETELY! Insanity!

Goose bumps.

Oprah Winfrey asked Tom Cruise, in her interview with him that aired today, if he would like to take back jumping on her couch. His response was only something Tom would say (video above).
