Fools Be Surprised After 30 Years Of Lies (To Learn Oprah Winfrey's Dishonest)

“If Oprah is so shocked by the Royal Family's alleged racism, why does she turn a blind eye to L. Ron Hubbard’s alleged racism? Oprah has for decades not made a statement about Scientology. She hasn't broadcast about the claims of human rights abuses, forced abortions, child labour. It’s inexcusable and a tremendous hypocrisy. In the 1990s and 2000s former Scientologists contacted her show and she did not have them on as guests to talk about their awful claims. She is friends with John Travolta and has also done two blockbuster interviews with Tom Cruise, both well-known celebrity Scientologists."

So, somebody's noticed Oprah hasn't said anything against dangerous cults "for decades", but very few have noticed (or connected that to the fact) she's - instead - used all that time to promote the Pseudoscience and NewAge beliefs that "helped create Our American Fantasyland". And no one's held her accountable for any of it:

On June 22, 2011, James Arthur Ray was found guilty of negligent homicide after three attendees of his “Spiritual Warrior” retreat died. That only three died — 18 others were injured — is nothing short of a miracle: In what Ray called a traditional Native American sweat-lodge ceremony, participants were first subjected to 36 hours of fasting in the Arizona desert, with nothing but a sleeping bag for company, and then required to participate in a ritual inside a 200-degree lodge. Ray called this a “heat endurance” exercise, but a better description would be a $10,000 life-threatening scam.

Twice in 2006, Ray was a guest of the Oprah Winfrey show. Twice, she endorsed his outré New Age thinking. In an interview with The Verge, the mother of retreat victim Kirby Brown revealed that Ray’s appearance on Oprah helped quell concerns her daughter felt about becoming a follower of Ray’s methods. If Oprah endorsed it, her daughter assumed, it must be safe. Alas, it seems the opposite is true. If Oprah endorses it, odds are it’s pseudoscience.

Hers is a strange, unethical, and bizarre system, but it’s a commercially beneficial one. From Oprah, the champions of a yet-to-be-proven, seems-too-good-to-be-true practice receive validity. From her guests, Oprah receives trend points. The only victims are . . . well, everybody else,..

"Everybody else" being the women (and gays) who protect her - as they do the Clintons (after '80s and '90s years of talk show indoctrination) as NewAge Nazis - by simply not caring. Not caring about their own murders, not caring about their own rapes, not caring about the trauma they cause to the ordinary people's lives (after they've abandoned them) the concept of anything approaching an ordinary life, and all the common sense that goes with it. Like Scientologists, they want celebrity - only - and at all costs.

And Oprah Winfrey not only knows the price, but makes them pay.

NewAge has a "journalist" and reality be damned.
