Oprah Syndrome

When a fat, ugly woman with a lot of money still looks like Oprah Winfrey. It doesn't matter how many face lifts or fancy clothes or jewelery she wears, she still looks like the maid or the cook.

Operation Mockingbird

A covert campaign run by the CIA to influence the media.
Starting in the early days of the Cold War (late 40's), the CIA began a secret project called Operation Mockingbird, with the intent of buying influence behind the scenes at major media outlets and putting reporters on the CIA payroll, which has proven to be a stunning ongoing success. The CIA effort to recruit American news organizations and journalists to become spies and disseminators of propaganda, was headed up by Frank Wisner, Allen Dulles, Richard Helms, and Philip Graham (publisher of The Washington Post). Wisner had taken Graham under his wing to direct the program code-named Operation Mockingbird and both have presumably committed suicide.

oprah show withdrawal

To be on an emotional roller coaster, similar to Oprah's dieting history, because you can not cope with The Oprah show going off the air.
Suburban Sally: 'What the Hell is your problem John? You left the jelly on the damn kitchen counter! Put it away!'

John: 'Wow...really? It's never bothered you before? Why now?....OH! Now i get it! Let me guess...Oprah Show Withdrawal?'

Suburban Sally: 'Yeah honey. I'm sorry for lashing out at you. I feel like i just got paroled after 25 years, trying to now integrate myself back into society between 4-5pm daily.'

John: 'I'll will help you cope honey. We will get through this together'.

Oprah Winfrey

The Deepak Chopra of talk show hosts. A god to soccer moms everywhere, and an egregious blight on everyone else. While her work ethic and her ability to overcome the horrid obstacles of her early life should be admired, she uses her platform as one of the most influential women on the planet to peddle woo, promote empty, platitudinous feel-good pop psychology horseshit, and give a prominent platform for the often-harmful advice of hacks and charlatans (see Dr. Phil, "psychologist", Dr. Oz, energy-healing quack, Jenny McCarthy, anti-vaccine kook, and, again, Deepak Chopra, for prominent examples). Every time she's on air, she has the opportunity to provide the truth and give people useful information to live by, but instead, kowtows to quackery, clapping like a trained seal in the process. As such, her influence does a disservice to the critical thinking skills of the general public, and should be considered nothing but a pus-filled carbuncle - nay - a malignant cancer on the asshole of Reason by any person who values their critical faculties. Fuck Oprah, and everything that snake oil-peddling, self-important cow stands for!
Bob: Did you watch Oprah Winfrey yesterday?
Greg: No, why?
Bob: She had a psychic come on the show to discuss her new book about crystal healing being used to cure cancer, and why you don't needn't consult a medical professional for treatment any longer. And the stupid, mindless pack of sycophantic soccer moms gobbled it up like it was the fucking Gospel!
Greg: *facepalm* This is why we can't have nice things!
