U.S. NATIONAL NEWS
from Eyewitness News Online Winfrey set to announce details Friday November 19, 2009 10:24 PM CHICAGO Oprah Winfrey's production company says she'll end her daytime talk show in 2011, after 25 seasons on the air. Harpo Productions says she'll announce the final date for the popular show during a live broadcast tomorrow. Winfrey's show grew from a local Chicago broadcast into the foundation of a multibillion-dollar media empire. It has been television's top-rated talk show for more than two decades, airing in 145 countries worldwide. There's talk that Winfrey may start a new show on OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network. The joint venture with Discovery Communications is expected to debut in 2011. A Harpo spokeswoman isn't commenting on Winfrey's plans, except to say that "The Oprah Winfrey Show" won't be moving to cable television. Meanwhile, CBS Television Distribution is holding out hope that it can continue doing business with Winfrey. The loss of her show would be a blow to CBS, which earns a percentage of hefty licensing fees from TV stations that use it. |
