VIDEO: Oprah's Teary Announcement: Saying Goodbye To Show "Feels Right in My Bones"
Posted on Nov 20, 2009 @ 11:24AM
Oprah Winfrey’s studio audience and the country held their breath on Friday as she made the official announcement on-air that she would be leaving her iconic daytime talk show in 2011.
“Twenty five years feels right in my bones and right in my spirit,” she told her audience, at times tearing up during the announcement. “It is the exact right time.” Winfrey also acknowledged her loyal fan base: “For some of you long time Oprah viewers you have literally grown up with me. You have your family and you raised your children and you left a spot for me in your morning and afternoon...[that] has brought me the greatest joy I have ever known.”

Before she went live, she shared the epic moment on Twitter. “Big Day....tune in my tweet friends,” Winfrey wrote.

The last show, slated for September 25, 2011, for The Oprah Winfrey Show will mark the end of its twenty-fifth season. In January she announced the launch of her own TV network- aptly named OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network- in conjunction with Discovery Communications.

Wow what meanness. Oprah has helped millions of people in this country. She is not a racist and I happen to love her show. Will be sorry to see her go. I guess we haven't moved that far in race relations.

I'm so glad this fat, racist sow is finally going to get off the air. Maybe we can get someone on who lives in the real world and isn't a racist.

That is exactly what came to mind when it said 2011, just in time to help him start his campaign for reelection.
