Expect to see memoirs pulled from release lists as the fact checkers give them a once over one last time
Wow Randy, I had no idea that things were THAT bad. At least not until I watched Oprah today...good LORD! It's pretty serious **** this man has gotten himself into...I do feel a little sorry for him.

By showing some for a swindler? I hope his writing career crashes and burns. His books are selling well now, but just wait for the follow-up. It will bomb.

I think being called a liar and a fraud by Oprah on national television is MORE than enough. That asshat has been slaughtered!

Kudos to Oprah for doing this on her show and admitting not only was she "duped" but wrong..She also tried to get the author to come clean..(in case there are more lies)..What a low life he is..I noticed he would not make eye contact with anyone and had a sneer on his mug most of the time..

I can't believe he went on the show. God, she was pissed. He didn't even want to answer any of her questions.

I know most of you don't like her, but Michelle's blog is the only place I have been able to find a clip from Oprah's show today...OPRAH MAD!

Oh lord, that was funny.


I only got to watch the first few minutes of Oprah before I had to leave, but she really was pissed, and much more focused than I have ever seen her on the show.

I wanted her to ask what else was altered in the book but I think she was afraid the whole thing might just unravel and the audience would attack him.
