Chronic Absenteeism Hurts Millions Of Students
'Toddlers & Tiaras': Damitri'ana Wears 'African' National…
UPDATE:It is confirmed that Oprah will be ending her show in 2011. Read more about Oprah ending her show in 2011 on the Entertainment Newswire.
-----------------------
Oprah Winfrey is expected to soon announce that she will be moving her show exclusively to her OWN cable network in 2011. A joint deal between Oprah and the Discovery Channel, the Oprah Winfrey Network is poised to launch in 70 million homes that same year. Her popular show will likely move to OWN on the heels of the network launch, as reported by The New York Daily News.
Oprah will be giving up the lucrative licensing and distribution deals her show now has with stations that syndicate her show internationally. In addition, Winfrey will move her staff and studios from her home base of Chicago to the future LA offices of OWN -- which will likely lead to layoffs. This business decision has already cost the Discovery Channel millions of dollars as the cable giant has been forced to shuffle staff and resources in anticipation of the change. Both sides in this deal are gambling that these sacrifices will be worth it in the end. But what about Ms. Winfrey's relationship with the public? Nikki Finke of the Deadline Hollywood blog writes:
But there's also no question that Oprah is a much more controversial figure now than she's ever been before because of her wealth and fame and politics. "She's lost her authenticity. Like when she said, 'It's good to have your own private jet.' Or when she shut down the City of Chicago with this season's 'flash mob' for the opening show. Where's the relatability?" The word internally at ABC is that TV stations have been cringing at Oprah's past and present and continuing support for Barack Obama, from her appearance at his inauguration (see photo) to her visits to the White House, because it antagonizes half the viewing public who don't share her politics. Now Oprah will no longer be in their faces: instead she'll be isolated on cable. The biggest question now in the TV industry is whether it's "Good Luck!" or "Good Riddance!"
On the business side, some question whether it is really a good move for Oprah to take her show, which is now seen in 140 countries, to a relatively minor cable channel. But this actually seems like a desirable next step for Oprah, who is already a media queen. She is now extending her queendom to include a more concrete stake of the market. As a personality, she has tremendous mindshare. With her OWN cable network, she will make her personal identity into a tangible company. And if the general public is growing disenchanted with her, the time is definitely right for her to rely less on her personal magnetism and more on her business acumen.

You go girl! The world is yours, do not be limited by what "they" think you should do.If Martha can make it back without any fanfair from the "white media", If Don Imus is back without any halaboloo, if Merv Albert can make it back from wearing female clothing with a dracula twist, if Howard Stern can leave the earth for the skies without regret...why should they try to limit you...If possible buy all of them and let them work for you...always putting limitations on a "Black People"...Damm it! you go again girl..

I think it's wonderful that Oprah is getting her "OWN" network.
I'm sure she already know there will be people talking negative about this move. I think if she is getting out before she is booted out proves that she has some smarts about her.
So what if she supports President Obama? Is it because he is black? What if the president was white. What would the talk be about then?
I think Oprah has done many good things to help people less fortunate, whether it was a write off or not, somebody benefited from it other than her. Oprah's Book Club has made many authors money too. Now was that a write off too?
She may have a hand in Dr. Phil, Rachel Ray, Dr. Oz, and whoever else, but again that shows her smarts. Oprah realize she probably will not be able to do her talk show for the rest of her life so get a hand in all this other stuff and the money continue to flow. That business.
So if you don't want to watch the show then don't watch it. This wonderful country we live in gives us that right. You probably are not the ones who got her the riches she has today.

Bill Schrier I have only a few words for a small man like yourself, you are a true hater, when it all said and done OBAMA is still you leader, your boss, your president and your commander he is the most important man on this planet so deal with it you cannot change it.

I am Darren Cubie Jones I am the son of Creadel Jones from the music group this Chi Lites and the Enchanters, Deisderos. I and our Family of the Chi Lites and Jackie Wilson would like to discuss the stories of the legacy of the my father from the Chi Lites who died homeless after selling 150,000,000 million records from his label Brunswick Records that also included the Chi Lites and manger and mentor Jackie Wilson.
It's a long keep secret that many legendary black musicians was keep from ever making money from their hundreds of millions of records sales in their legacies. But what not every said is what happen during the legacies of legendary black icons like my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites and the Enchanters.
Mistreatment threw out the decades of my father legendary Chi Lites carrier is what played a role in causing my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites to be imprisoned in the all to done abuse and mistreatment that Hollywood refuses to tell concerning the deaths from abuse and
racist cover ups toward black icons and the Chi Lites and the legendary Jackie Wilson and the treatment that criminals in the mob got away with to black legendary entertainers like the Chi Lites and Jackie Wilson and recently the legendary Michael Jackson who where associated to my father and the Chi Lites and Jackie Wilson and the Brunswick Records label and CBS Label.
I have seen many different kinds of criminals in the entertainment field but none as bold as those who are the mistreated of my father Creadel Jones founding member of the Chi Lites and an Enchanters group member. Seeing unheard of abuse and mistreatment for instance a arm that had been broke from the gangsters of a criminal mob ring and his label Brunswick Records that had given a threat to me and the Chi Lites and my father Creadel not to tell a legal district attorney anything about the abuse of Brunswick are the murder gangsters behind it.
Many people say that Jackie Wilson faked a stroke not to have to testify against a gangster that ran Brunswick Records letter he died mysteriously. After my father Creadal Jones died mysteriously in Glendale California I and mother and two sister where mysteriously contacted by founding member Marshall Thompson of the Chi Lites and Enchanters and I was told that my father Creadel Jones was dead after I had been told that my father had been homeless and was in poverty.
According to Marshall Thompson he had visited my father Creadel Jones in order to get him to come back to the Chi Lites for a reunion but was told by my father that he didn't want anything to do with it are Marshall Thompson are the Chi Lites because he felt our family and he was mistreated and abused.
After how my father was allowed to be left in poverty sleeping on the street and under a bridge who could blame him!!My father and his legendary group accomplished selling over 150,000,000 million records and over a half a dozen different Hall a fames achievements including Life Time Achievement Award and Billboard Hall Of Fame , Soul Train Hall Of Fame , Vocal Group hall of Fame, R/B Hall Of Fame and a Grammy Award.
Despite the record sales and even amazing remakes from urban and well known singers like Beyonce, UB40, Paul Young and urban legends hip hoppers like Jay Z and Mc. Hammer in which broke world records in album sales selling over 19,000,000 million from Beyonce remake and over 10,000,000 million from Mc. Hammers remake of Have You Seen Her and opening for the first time ever given to a urban rapper the first diamond album to a rapper are hip hop artist musician. Despite that my family was barely able to afford housing.
After enduring poverty and mobsters that impoverished my family from abuse to our legacy from the Chi Lites by my father my mother attempted to contact Oprah in order to gain connections to entertainment legal representatives but was able to gain any substance. My mother and our family went on to try to protect the legacy of my father legendary Chi Lites music group but my mother wound up dead from diabetes and stress that played ever part in declining her condition she went into a coma and died. My two sisters and their kids and I barely were able to even cover her funeral after the records company Brunswick and Chi Lites singer Marshall Thompson promised to send 10,000 dollars from a deal that I had help create from Beyonce and Jay Z in which I was lead to do because of the royalties abuse to my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites.
My mother had gotten so tired of being forced to endure royalties and mental abuse from exploitation of the revenues of my father Creadel Jones from his group the Legendary Chi Lites until she told me that she could not continue to undergo abuse and that her health was in jeopardy from the stress she had been hospitalized a few times from high blood pressure from the stress and we need to do something I suggested that I could find someone to help so I went to Manhattan New York from St. Louis to talk to Brunswick Records owner Paul son of the original owner Nat former manger of Jackie Wilson.
I had talk to Paul a few times before and always seemed to have conflicted. But I knew that her life could be at risk from the abuse and stress, so I went I was only a kid 21 are 22 years old. I had to live homeless we I got to Manhattan New York in the area near 42 second street are 41st street . I nearly got attacked one time at the homeless shelter. I went to talk to Paul at my father’s record label and manger Jackie Wilson label. I could not get in the ground I needed so I went on to try to find an associated entertainer that could help.
I was able to find BB King by walking down 42 street were the BB King Night club had been announcing a concert special that had been announced that was going on after I arrived. I was able to talk to BB King after I had talk to a worker of BB Kings I didn’t know how to put all the abuse that lead to the death of my father are the condition of my mother Deborah Jones wife of my father for over twenty years. But I explained it clearly and loudly as possible.
After expressing that my father Creadel Jones was a founding musician for the Chi Lites and that he died in homelessness and abuse in Glendale California I was shock are surprised to hear the reply of BB King he said Darren your father is more popular than me BB King. After explaining and hearing BB King tell and explain how he meet my father and his legendary group the Chi Lites I was allowed to leave empty with nothing other than a shocking compliment and BB Kings memories of my father Creadel Jones I left in tears and sadden even worse.
I returned back to the Manhattan 42 drop in shelters. It was charismas month holiday and I wanted to surprise my mother by getting some help to get her and my two sisters out of poverty. I decided to find Russell Simmons because I felt that he could help and offer direction and guidance so I asked someone who was formulizer with Manhattan New York how could I go to Def Jam Records Russell Simmons Office Head Quarter located in down town Manhattan New York .
I left a message concerning me and my father’s music legacy from his legendary Chi Lites group and said I would like to speak to him and my mother widow of my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites concern the Chi Lites and our legacy. I was told to wait by an employee of the record label and I meet Jay Z and Damon Dash I had already typed a business statement up stating the story of what happen with my father and the Chi Lites and an offer to purchases the rights from royalties of my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites. Jay Z said he would do something in order to help but said he had to go to a meeting and left saying he was interested and would contact me latter about it.
Months went by and I was listen to the radio and heard my father’s song remade by Beyonce and contacted the lawyer Jay B Ross that was representing our Chi Lites revenues and was told by Jay Ross that Beyonce had remade a song named are you my woman by my father and his group the Chi Lites and that a amount was paid over 370,000 dollars but was not ever sent to me nor any family member including my mother that I knew of.
My mother said she was not aware of any revenues from that song it sold over 19,000,000 and was one of the biggest selling songs in music history and stayed number one for over two months straight and went platinum and gold diamond. during this time my mother was left in such a state of financial abuse she was unable to even eat healthy quickly losing weight and getting extremely sick from the abuse and stress , she was hospitalized and put on a dialysis machine and not giving too long to live. She could not even drive with out throwing up out of the car. By time I came back to visit my mother Deborah Jones she was skinny and had a tube in hear neck that had gotten put their from her arm. She was very happy to talk to me and see me but was very sick. She complained about how she could not afford good medical treatment do to the revenue abuse and the poverty out it and was very depressed from it.
I pried that she would be better and that I could find a fellow musician of the Chi Lites that could help. I did thought it was the end for her if I couldn't find help to get her money for a better health care. I tried again to contact Oprah even going to her studio over a half dozen times and writing in letters, until I was contacted by a Senior Producer for the Oprah Show You could help by contacting Oprah and Gale King at 1-866 277 2496 and leave your thoughts concerning this you can review this and other issues by leaving your messages at Oprah on her Voice mail 1 866 277-2496 I briefly talked to Alley Wassermann and told her about the abuse that caused father Creadel Jones to die homeless and my mother to be sick and on
dialyses machine, and was told that Oprah had interest and to send the information along with the story of the abuse and mistreatment to my father and mother and other black legendary entertainers concerning this story and I did. I sent contract s from my father record label and sales revenues statement from the sales of the records of my father and
his black legendary music group the Chi Lites. Latter I did not get any calls about the mistreatment and the abuse that lead to the death of not only my father Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites and the Jackie Wilson. I have still contacted Oprah and left more information and details but have not been contact by Oprah. I even left a idea for Oprah to create a program called O Ambassadors Originality created to help inner city kids out of their bad environments and give them new experiences outside of their environments, by sending them to help others in impoverished third world courtiers who need people to help them rebuild their nation out poverty and a state devastation. I think you could use this as a story for a movie and I think you could use this as a way to help create a awareness on the abuse of legendary black entertainers legacy like my father's Creadel Jones from the Chi Lites and our fiends the Jackson's Michael Jackson and Jackie Wilson Legacy.
I can only wish and prey you can help with this. After the death of Michael Jackson people are becoming interested in what happens to legendary black entertainers. I would like to see you and Oprah Winfery and I and the Jacksons help create a law to protect the legacies of legendary black entertainers. That would prevent the abuse to the legacies of legendary entertainers black are white are even green.I and the families of legendary black entertainers need your help and guidance and concern in the legacy abuse and exploitation of legendary black entertainers. I opened a organization to protect the legacies of legendary black entertainers named Entertainers Against Exploitation and Corruption located in St. Louis Mo. after my mother’s death but are still homeless and trying to get out of revenue abuse I am in Francis Center in Rochester New York I am not alone many of legends of black icons are still in poverty after opening the doors for many of today’s riches entertainers we still are left in poverty and need your help along with Oprah Winfery.
I was leaving at Francis Center in Rochester my email is ChiLitesLegacy@yahoo.com phone at 619 384 5610 any time I hope you can help me our legacy from the Chi Lites and legendary black entertainers by helping us voice the truth of our legendary black legacies and the abuse that caused us to be left in poverty and deviation the legacies of Michael Jackson and the Chi Lites and other black legendary figures and icons are in a state of danger we could use your help for our stories and the black legacies of behind creation our nation and this world.
There Could be a New Law and Bill Passed Protect The Legacies Of Legendary Black Entertainers You Could Be The Force To End What Caused One Of The Greatest Black Musician To Die From Mistreatment and Abuse Along with my father Creadel Jones from the legendary Chi Lites The Legacy’s Of Legendary Black Entertainers Are Waiting And Our Families. Do a movie on Black Legacy Abuse and Help the legacies and us out Of Poverty.
Love God Bless You DEARLY
