Oprah's best friend, Gayle King, is helping the talk-show queen sort out the abuse scandal at Oprah's South African girl's school.

"We're definitely working on it," King told People magazine this week.

King says she accompanied Oprah on both the trips she made to the school, south of Johannesburg, earlier this month.

Oprah,s tax write off gone wrong.
ANYONE could do what Oprah does. It is time we stop treating "personalities" like heroes.
Oprah is lucky that she has made so much money for so little .
The true heroes aren't on TV.

What a lot of nasty, small-minded vicious people post here. You're a sorry lot. I wonder how many of you even make a small charitable donation to anything. Or volunteer your time. Disgraceful bunch of pricks.

Unless Oprah is willing to personally intruct these children, what the hell is a billionaires doing creating and running a private school for underage children half the world away? She is unable on purely geographical terms, to manage an institution in South Africa. period. Unless Oprah is creating employment with in the corporate media complex for these children, she should leave education to educators in South Africa, and underwrite and fund those institutions, and work BEHIND THE SCENES with the local governments in South Africa. Anything else is playtime for Oprah and her friend.

King is so obviously her lover. Foot of the bed? Bow-Wow! The school costs $46 million. It must be the biggest deal for miles. If some molesting lesbian was actually in charge of such a large institution for young girls, it must have been known by others. This story smells because a billionaire probable lesbian, still in the closet of denial, has a lesbian predator running her vaunted 'girls school' for the abused and orphaned. Guaranteed we'll never find out what really is going on, due to the murkiness of Winfrey's own relationships. Just reporting the story automatically brings up the subject of gay female sex. A personally messy topic O could do without right now. What a weird thing all around.

The pictures of Gayle and Oprah speak a thousand words. Gayle really has a laser focus on her sugar momma. Throw in Condi for a threesome. Too bad that children have to be the pawns in all this.

For those peeps who believe "WHAT GOES
AROUND COMES AROUND!" Remember how she
behaved toward to the great writer called
James Frey? (one million little pieces)
I never forget it. In fact I used to be
her FA number 1 (one) not anymore.

Her best job is making people become
rich and famous like: Dr.Phil; Dr.OZ; Nate;
Rachel Rey (spell?) Gail King; etc
Did I forget somebody else? OMG Jessica S.

Remember EVA PERON? (Argentina) she became
a SAINT because she used
to distributed lots of money between
the poor.

PS. Pls. forget my English is 2nd language

Of course she had the best intentions. It seems though that the problem from the beginning is that she doesn't know the first thing about running a school.

Yet another example when money and power do not equal success.

THIS story about " OPRAH opening the school and now the scandle that has happen, I have one question.
" why was there a chool opened in a country that she has no every day or even weekly habnds on ?, there are many blacks here in the U.S that could use help in education and get none.
OPRAH THINK HERE IN YOUR OWN BACK YARD.

To give the girls an opportunity!! Even if the school were here, it would be impossible for her to have hands on..

I remember reading that she would/could not make donations to the Chicago public school system because she wanted to determine how the money would be spent.

If this is true, this seems to follow the pattern of her "giving" on her terms by dictating instead of asking what is needed.

I guess Oprah hasn't learned Gayle is not her best spokesperson. After the Hermes debacle where Oprah hid behind Gayle (again) to speak for her, you would have thought Oprah wised up. Winfrey/King are a strange duo. One hit it big time with a talk show and the other just keeps hanging on for benefits. Oprah Winfrey should stick to what she does best which is promote celebs and designers and - her real passions.

This could apply to the president. He is much worse than Oprah. One of the few.

But watch her show carefully: everything gets directed back to her;
everyone is careful to kiss her ass; and her broadcast history is rife with public relation stunts.
