Oprah: A Network of Her OWN?

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Talk Shows, Cable, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show, News

Big news today. You can hardly get on a Web site without seeing the banner headlines - Oprah Winfrey, megastar and money-maker galore, is getting a TV network. And yet, the WE network is already hers, no? And isn’t she somehow involved with the Oxygen network, too?

At any rate, the Discovery Health channel will be taken over by the talk show star and become OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.  (Naturally, because the woman is well on her way to OWNing the world.)  As it is, Winfrey didn’t even pay for the Discovery channel network.  She instead turned over her Web site to the Discovery family and became chairman of the network. Not a bad deal.

Re-runs of her talk show will definitely be on the network, which will be all about Oprah all the time. Can’t wait.
