Oprah Says Goodbye – Two Years Early
I think it’s important to give notice when you leave a job. When I left my previous job to come to ChristianCinema.com, I gave my employers there 30 days’ notice. Our pastor recently left our church; he gave 60 days’ notice.
Oprah, the queen of daytime television, has us all beat. She gave 18 months’ notice that she’s ending her 25-year talk reign. She’s ending it in September, 2011. Why do I need to know that now?
She is a woman of great influence and has inspired many people to do a lot of things, but has she finally succumbed to her own press?
An announcement like this seems to want to make me think that her decision has so much impact on my life, that my life is going to change so much, that I need to start preparing for it. Make plans now – what else am I going to watch in the afternoon? What will take her place on my TiVo? I don’t know. I’m just glad I have two years to plan for it.
Whether someone agrees with Oprah’s politics or not, it could be motivated by the 2012 election where president Obama, who she helped campaign for him in 08, I’m assuming is running for reelection
