The Final Days of Oprah

H.A.T.E.R.S. = Having Anger Towards Everyone Reaching Success

A person hates u for 1 of 3 reasons. 1.They wanna be you 2.They hate themselves 3.They see you as a threat.

Some ppl make themselves hate what they don't have or can't get, to hide the fact that they really want it...

Ican assure you i don't feel in any way insulted i'm only sad that you don't believe other people have the right to express a different opinion without calling them rats,as far as i can remember i haven't insulted you personally so it's sad to see your so quick to stoop so low. And please don't get me on to pugface Phil,sickening wife,and pancake faced son.

You didn't voice an opinion. You called her a repulsive creature. An insult.
Much like you're insulting "pugface Phil".
Much like you called a poster a dullard - another insult.

You can't have it both ways, with the means to insult, and the inability to be called on your bullshit, and insulted back.

Thus, my quip about feeding the rats, sticks. I'm done helping you get fatter - you can whine in an effort to make yourself seem to be the bigger man now. I give you permission.

I stopped watching her show years ago when she did one on men of different races. As you can probably expect, since we sometimes talk about it on this board, the issue of penis size and ethnicity came up. One of her panelists joked about Asian men.

I don't think I was being overly sensitive. I just thought it was rather bad taste. You'd never hear Oprah being insensitive toward other ethnic men but since Asian men are not her demographic it hardly sounded a glitch on anyone's radar.

This might be a bit off topic here but here it goes: I've always respected the black woman because more often than not, she defends and sticks up for the black man. Case in point, OJ Simpson. It would be nice if a prominent Asian woman would do something similar whenever someone riducules or insults Asian men.

So you watched an episode of Oprah back in the 90's, got offended because her audience laughed when one of her panelist's made a comment about Asain Men and their "penis", you sent the show an email and to this day you're still talking about how you didnt get a response ONLY because you stated in the email that you are an "Asian Male"....So naturally "The Oprah Show" would NOT respond back to an Asian Male because the show is seen in over 150 Countries but her show is BANNED from the Asian markets?

Your ENTIRE argument has no credibility considering the Fact you've been registered here @ JUB for 3yrs and you have no problem with the comments/jokes made about Asians and other Minorities.....

You STOPPED watching "Oprah" after One 10-minute segment however you kept your 3yr account on a Pornographic website where some Fellow members have made the same Jokes you're accusing an Oprah-panelist of doing.....

I had some trouble wrapping my head around his grudge with Oprah. But I do think he's carried a grudge for too long. It's not like she raped him.

Again, she made Lisa Ling who she is today. Oprah can't promote an Asian woman and be anti-Asian at the same time.

As for keeping an account on a site that has had anti-Asian jokes and boycotting Oprah for her alleged laugh at Asian penis size, I guess that's just him having his cock and eating it too.

I love Oprah alot. But I felt her last show was far to preachy and scripted.

The episode in question was in 2005. Roughly six years ago. Oprah and her friends didn't have such issues laughing at Asian men but, like I said, since her demographic is middle class women, I hardly think she lost viewership.

You'll have to humor me here. When did I ever make disparaging remarks about Asians?
I've always been a fan of Justusboys. But seeing these remarks has made me reconsider that perspective.

I don't doubt Lisa Ling has gotten Oprah's support. Oprah supports all women, regardless of color, which is the way it should be. But in my previous post I was just saying it would be nice if prominent Asian women spoke out against racist stereotypes against Asian men like the black woman does when someone speaks negatively about black men. But I digress.

I was considering today some of the reactions I've seen in this thread. I've often discussed Oprah in my classes, and after teaching literally thousands of women, I can say I've never heard one woman express the kind of venom against Oprah as I have seen in this thread and others here on JUB. I then tried to recall what I've heard my male students over the year express about her, and most of my straight male students had either not watched her much at all, or they were rather indifferent to her. I have encountered people outside of the classroom environment who expressed some similar opinions, but upon listening to them rant, I began to understand that their energy was either misogynist in nature, or racist (how dare a woman be so arrogant or uppity). While I do not claim those qualities exist here, it does seem interesting to me that other than racists and misogynists, it's some gay men who possess such venom against her.

I did not say you made any Comments/stereotypical-jokes about Asians in your 3yrs here on JUB. This is a Pornographic site so Dicks of all races and sizes will be discussed..I'm sure we agree on that...

You have an issue with people that make Stereotypical-Jokes about the Size of the "Asian Man's Dick". How many times have you spoken-up about it HERE in the last 3yrs?

You sent The Oprah show an email and you stopped watching after that particular segment turned you off......So why havent you Deleted your JUB-account considering all the conversations Jubers have about Asians, Asian Dick, and how Asian men perform or under-perform in the bedroom? You get it RAW here and you know it...

Does JUB get a 'Pass" on all things "Asian" because it is a Porn site and it is what it is? So The Oprah show doesnt get a pass because it was a reputable talk show and you thought in 2005 that Oprah was above having Panelists that would make a stereotypical-joke about "Asian men"?

Her new network is great but it's not the Oprah show.....
(This Quote is posted here because Phillurban's original "Oprah thread" was closed by a Moderator due to "Cat Fighting" among members...)

Back in January'11 "Discovery INC" had no choice but to Fill-up "OWN" with TONS of reality programming because Oprah had to devote most of 2011 to her talk show's 25th & Final Season...


When "Reality TV" invaded Television in the late 90's I watched because it was forced down my throat...The ONLY Reality shows I dig on "OWN" are "Season 25" , "Searching For" & "Miracle Detectives"...There are a few others that are decent..I Love "The Judds" but I had no desire to watch their reality Docu/Drama...I LOVE, Love, Love Shania Twain but once again I didnt think twice about watching her reality show.....I'm pretty sure I won't be tuning in to "Dutchess Furgi: Finding me" either...


"The Gayle King show" is actually a Bubbling-under hit...I didnt think I'd like Gayle in another talk-show format, but this format really works for her and she shines....She doesnt need a LIVE audience...Just the Celebrity-Guests and the "LIVE-Callers" works for her...When I'm @ home during the week I'll watch her 10am show right after "Morning Joe" on MSNBC....


I'm looking forward to Rosie's return to Daytime this Fall Via "Own"....I'm also curious to see if she's still able to engage an Audience by herself. Rosie has gone through so much since her last show. The Viewers are getting a different Rosie this-go-round. Barbara Walters and Now Oprah Winfrey have kept the "Talk Show" door OPEN for her. Rosie is truly "The Chosen" one in their eyes...I 'm curious to see where Rosie is "Mentally"...."The Queen of nice-persona" does not exist and probably never did. Can Rosie make it in DayTime being her "authentic-self"?


I want "O" to get her much needed break over the Summer and ATTACK the Programming on OWN like a Mad-Woman in the Fall...
