Life Imitates the Onion

"With nearly three weeks having passed since
talk-show host Oprah Winfrey last issued an
official command, approximately 60 million
Oprah Winfrey Show viewers are on standby,
stationed in front of their television sets
and patiently awaiting further instructions
from their leader."--Onion, Sept. 9, 1998

"Oprah Winfrey has risen to a new level of
guru. She's no longer just a successful
talk-show host worth $1.4 billion, according
to Forbes' most recent estimate. Over the
past year, Winfrey, 52, has emerged as a
spiritual leader for the new millennium, a
moral voice of authority for the nation."
--USA Today, May 11, 2006

Onion" 8 years later...
