Oprah's Media Influence
Oprah Winfrey has had an immense presence in the media, mostly since she became the host of her very own talk show in 1986. Before this even, she started out in her very first media-related job as a news reporter for a Nashville radio station. Oprah has become a household name over the 25 years her talk show has been on television. Although 2010 marks the end of her talk show career, it sure won't be the last we ever see of Ms. Winfrey. At the start of the 2011 year she will be debuting her OWN television network available to most people with cable TV. Oprah is also the founder of her own Magazine, as well as her own Book Club that gives authors and their novels instant fame. There is hardly a person in America who doesn't know of Oprah and her outstanding achievements.
