Oprah Winfrey Files Suit Against Dietary Supplement Firms

Oprah Winfrey Files Suit Against Dietary Supplement Firms
by Mike Hughlett

Alleging Internet marketers are using her name without permission, Oprah Winfrey–through her corporate vehicle, Harpo Inc.–on Wednesday filed a federal trademark infringement suit against 40 peddlers of dietary supplements.

And the talk show star–or at least her people–aided an investigation by Illinois Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan that led to three lawsuits against makers and marketers of dietary supplements made from acai berries.

Winfrey’s show features segments about foods or products that can lead to better health, and they often include appearances by Dr. Mehmet Oz. Last year, Oz praised the anti-aging properties of the acai berry.

She's suing because the companies are using her name as an endorsement of their products so when people get ripped off and the company isn't answering calls, they end up calling her company and complaining.


Can't blame Oprah for this one although I will say she is partially responsible for that Dr Phil dietary line.

The only thing good about Opera is her bank account. That's about as far as it goes.

If you'd seen the movie you know she was pretty much all about cotton picking and getting smacked around by her black husband which is as far as I heard a pretty daily accuracy in a black relationship.

which is exactly why we have to introduce cotton picking again - the american negors have lost their sprit and way of life - it's pretty much the same as if you tell the US white population that they cannot do an honest days work anymore but have to watch dumb TV and eat chicken and watermerlons all day long - they be lost.

I say bring back cotton fields again.

I'm sure Godrum wouldn't be gay if he had to pick cotton - he be too tired to get bumbed in the ass after a hard honest days work.

HAHAAHAAH...LIVE A LIE is the motto of white meat... They make up 88 percent of the welfare register, are the face of POVERTY in america ( I see many of your kind in TENT CITIES, shelters, homeless, on the news now), have always been the face of domestic abuse (and that is not something you hear...that's FACT), white meat fills the substance abuse centers and with 90 percent of all drugs in your white ghetto communities what should be expected...Stark your clearly an old, white angry male with nothing working for you. Take a look at the pathetic state of your own... even your men are now prostituting for drugs and money to pay bills, you're filling soup lines and food banks handouts. The day of "white meat" feeling superior are OVER!!!

Here is couple of good videos for you to CRY OVER...lol


I love this one as well, becasue this is actually happening in America



A FUNNY



PO' WHITE TRASH IN AMERICA



Poverty and Tent City in Rhode Island... This is the DUMBEST WHITE MALE REPORTER EVER!!!

mate I'm living in Ireland here our blacks and browns and whites knowo how to behave - and yes we had a problem with Nigerians raping the system but hey thats nearly over :D

I just report to you what I have found out to be true - over 75% of all crimes are committed by black people in America and not because black people tend to dislike work and want to rape and pillage but more because you as in the educated or semieducated black man in America have ripped the carped under the black mans feet - they were proud of an honest days work in the cotten or corn fields and have now nothing to do but to sit around to drink colt and to get into any mischief possible.
Does that sound like a good life to you? Seriously.

Like typical "white meat" speaking on things he knows nothing about. Obviously you have never seen the movie...

I'm sure your kind looks at the movie and see it as free the black culture kind of flick - I see it as it was intended to be seen Oprah Winfrey picking cotton and getting abused - I skipped pretty much all other parts of the movie since they don't hold any value for me what so ever.

I mean I know you guys are free - I see you every day on the street - even in Ireland - and shout a jolly "top of the morning to ya" - so I don;'t really need to see what the blacks went through in the early 40 and 50th.

Get me?
