Oprah particular smashes contest
NEW YORK Books, TV motion pictures, a presidential candidate and now an eleemosynary reality show. Perchance everything Oprah Winfrey touches truly does turn to gold.

Among the top four spreaders, only a Saturday nighttime rerun of an “All-Star Tribute to Jimmy Kimmel” had got a littler audience.
