    Fuck Oprah.

    Her sanctimonious bullshit brought us Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil, and Jenny McCarthy.

    Her ‘listening platform’ has probably lead directly to the deaths of tens of thousands of people.

      Would you rather, receive open heart surgery performed by Oz, Phil with Nurse McCarthy, or receive lethal injection administered by Dr Phil?

      This shouldnt be a hard question, but…

        Nah, nah, nah. Easy choice. I’d go with the lethal injection because I think that there’s a much greater chance Phil would fuck up killing someone (easy, all things considered), rather than the three of them succeeding in something difficult. Simply because none of them are qualified to do anything but blather idiocy into a camera

          Iirc Dr. Oz used to be quite the renowned heart surgeon. Makes it even more tragic that he chose this life as a charlatan giving harmful advice, instead of using his talent for good.

      “But she’s so empowering!” the fans will say, nevermind the fact that she only seems to “empower” fraudsters.
