There better not have been any, or that'd just be incredibly obnoxious. :z

Howard Stern tore into her giving away the cars today on the radio. It was pretty damn hilarious.

Howard Stern isn't hilarious. He isn't even controversial or at least interesting, just boring and overrated.

When I heard this, I laughed and then vomited. She must be pretty desperate for audience.

It would have been better if there were Oprah mannequin heads on the cars instead of red ribbons.

The article says the audience was hand-picked. If there were men in it, it would have been EXTREMELY obnoxious.

I believe the way Oprah's audience thing works is like this: You sumbit your name that you want tickets to her show. As far as I know, all of the shows are then set on dates or airing, and then an audience is randomly assigned to the show so that everyone has a fair shot.

Oprah doesn't need ratings - she's been doing stuff like this for a long time. Yeah, my mom watches it like everyday and explains this stuff to me.
