Oprah Racism Watch: Day Eleven

The best way to affect unapologetic racist Oprah Winfrey is to impact her sponsors’ revenue streams.

So, the first step in doing that is to build a list of everyone who advertises during the Oprah Winfrey Show, on the Oxygen Cable Network (of which Oprah is part owner), or in O Magazine.

The next step would be to begin writing and calling these sponsors to voice our disapproval in Oprah, and her racist decision to not allow white political candidates on her black-political-candidates-only hourlong daily program.

It is time we integrated the Oprah Winfrey show, which refuses to allow Governor Sarah Palin an interview, despite clamor from Oprah’s viewership to have the first female Republican Vice Presidential candidate on the air.

Oprah hosted SoetorObama on her program twice while he was planning his presidential run – and she’s featured him prominently on her radio program and in her magazine since then.

Her reasoning for this attention in the past was how “history-making” his candidacy was, but Sarah Palin’s candidacy is just as “history-making” in its own way. It is, thus, deserving of its own hour on Oprah, where Winfrey could make the case for SoetorObama if she chooses, with Palin offering her respectful response, we’re sure.

If a white talk show host refused to have SoetorObama on his or her program, there would be a boycott of that show’s sponsors until the program allowed him on.

Why should Oprah get this free pass?
