Oprah

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

I thought the concept that what we expect from Oprah is also something we as a society has created for Oprah was very interesting. While people try to shoot holes in her "facade", they do it only after she doesn't fufill what we believe to be an "adaquate" job of filling the role that media and veiwers have created for her. I also liked the discussion about whether or not we'd expect the same amount of charity form a fortunate person who didn't come from a prosition of poverty or hardship. I found it very interesting to see how we as a society would ulitmately expect more from someone who has had a more difficult time rising to the top.
