Why do you care what Oprah's involvement was in this situation? You're defending her like you know her or have some personal relationship with her.
No, I haven't. The primary reason I corrected the original poster is because this happens on getbig entirely too often- someone posts an article that is either demonstrably false or says completely the opposite of what is claimed and the entire board will begin reading into it things that no rational person could possibly take away. One example that comes to mind was that Joe Rogan thread.
At one point, I thought it was probably just a bunch of you taking the piss, but I'm positive that isn't the case most of the time. It's just a lack of reading comprehension and basic common sense.
