One must only assume that this title was bestowed upon as Colonel is given in the state of America known as Kentucky.
The leaders of this church have considerable power upon consumers, who buy products that mainly the churches leader tells them to. Items that Oprah tells her followers to buy include but are not limited to, books, and health and beauty care products. While the churches shadow corporation known as Harpo has a production company, a magazine, as well as a television network.
While Ms. Winfery has been proven wrong on several occasions, she has yet to ever address these instances. She has been also known to advocate and inform about health matters, that are either only partialy true, or yet to be proven or excepted by several government regulating agencies.
Make no mistake this is a religion, as with all orginzed faith groupings it has followers of differing degrees of devotion and involvement.
Once a year the leader of Oprahism broadcasts an hour long feeding frenzy of mass histaria known as Oprahs favorite things.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
