06/25/00: Some of my anti-Oprah gripes:

Posted By: Bickle


1. Sickening self-congratulation. She can never do any kind of "good" on her program without crowing it to the rooftops.

2. Bubble-brained New Age Horseshit. Deepak Choprah, "Remembering your Spirit" and a host of other vapid pseudospirituality which she laps up and has lapped up by her regrettably credulous audience.

3. Using her show as a PR combine to promote whatever crapfestival book, movie, television show or magazine she is vaguely affiliated with.

4. Major league pretensiousness: using her "Book club" aura to project an air of intellectualism which in reality is nothing more than "You Go Girl" platitudes.
