'I purposefully did not mention the name of the store,' Winfrey said. 'I was just referencing it as an example of being in a place where people don't expect that you would be able to be there.
How kind of "HER FATNESS" not to mention the clerk's name and "George Zimmerman" her.
The audience viewership of her show in Switzerland has gone down to zero! Oh wait, it’s always been zero.
One of the most evil women in America today!
True dat. She a hefty heifer.
'So no apologies necessary from the country of Switzerland. If somebody makes a mistake in the United States do we apologize in front of the whole country? No!'
So no apology to the poor clerk.
I missed this but you are right:
This was a contrived reference to Sanford. She was trying to claim Trayvon Martin victim status by equating the shop clerk to George Zimmerman.
What a disgusting witch she is.
Why should Oprah blame the store clerk?
Let’s ask them how much theft was committed as a percentage by race, shall we?
I have a family member who owned a store- she said it was easily 80% Holder’s people, who only represented about 10% of the customers.
'It's not an indictment against the country or even that store,' she continued. 'It was just one person who didn't want to offer me the opportunity to see the bag.
'So no apologies necessary from the country of Switzerland. If somebody makes a mistake in the United States do we apologize in front of the whole country? No!'
Apology??? Her royal hiney accused her, therefore she must be guilty.
Expect her to get the George Zimmerman treatment, afterall it's the seriousness of the accusation that matters -- not the existence of any evidence.
didn’t the Swiss business (whose owner she apparently met at a wedding there) already apologize?
If they don’t open for Obama it’d be a national scandal, a real one unlike Benghazi, IRS, NSA etc
Shes a pro-abortion, liberal winch who made two billion dollars off gullible white women. Now she plays the race card every chance she gets.
Oprah’s self-invented egocentric new-age religion obviously does not contain the Commandment: “Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbor”.
The shopowner said it was a misunderstanding.
I wonder if the wedding took place before or after this event and if Oprah met her there and Oprah felt dissed by her in some way and thus going to the press about this nonevent is/ was just Oprah’s way at getting back at her.
Very good question
Her Chi-Town wide-load-ness wanted the purse for Tina Turner’s wedding. Turns out, the owner of the store was also one of Tina’s wedding guests. That’s reason she’s backpedaling as fast as she can.
She could have addressed it to the store owner privately but, hey “media circus” and “racism” is only way she knows how to go.
EXCLUSIVE: Now Swiss store owner at center of Oprah's 'racist' handbag storm demands to speak to star she brands 'over-sensitive'
I saw Oprah at Tina's wedding but I only knew her from TV. We didn`t speak, and now unfortunately since then, this is played out before the entire world.
I hope the business will not suffer as a result of this. I hope I can speak with Oprah to resolve the situation personally, as quickly as possible.
