Oprah then staged a fake burglary at her home. She said that she had been knocked unconscious, and during the ordeal her glasses had broken. Another time, she ran away from home. While on the street, she ran away from home. While on the street, she approached Aretha Franklins limousine and convinced the singer that she was an abandoned child. Franklin is said to have giving her $100.Oprahs last antic involved her frantic attempt to keep a broken puppy. She created a table about the brave puppy fending off robbers. She even added a bit of realism to the "scene "by tossing her mothers jewellery out of the window.
v) At the age of nine, and for several years thereafter, Oprah was sexually abused by a teenage cousin and then by other relatives and friends. She spoke openly about this on her talk shown in 1991.At the time, she offered support and showed empathy to guests and viewers who had gone through similar painful experiences.

In an interview for Washington post magazine, she told Jill Nelson that if she hadnt been sent to her father, she would have gone in another direction.
vii) In January 1984, Oprah took over the ailing television talk show AM Chicago. She instantly turned it into a smash hit. Her earthly and down home style won her large audience. In September of 186, the Oprah Winfrey show made its national debut. Within five months, it was the third highest rated show on television behind the game shows of Wheel of Fortune and jeopardy. In the same year, her show raced between 9 and 10 million people in 12 cities on a daily basis. Since then, Oprah and her shows have received many Day time Emmy awards.
