Has Oprah said anything about Dr. Oz?
Since his public persona is her creation, I would think she might have something to say about his foray into politics.
She does not seem shy to publicly chime in on everyone from Serena Williams to Megan Markle.
And neither is she adverse from getting involved in politics.

It’s a literary technique used to imply that someone’s opinion (Oprah Winfrey, in this case) is so worthless that their very recognition is called into question. The next time you read or hear someone say, ‘xxxx who?’, there’s a real possibility the person actually knows who’s who but chooses to riff on their insignificance.
so maybe the opportunity is not all that unique.
But she does have a broad audience--probably a lot more people pay attention to her than to Liz Cheney or Adam Kingzinger (unfortunate, but true).
Sometimes it's the hardest thing in the world to do--admit you're wrong. Some people are so cowardly about it that they end up creating more problems for themselves. Like throwing bad money after good on a losing hand in poker.
More people in the spotlight need to publicly admit when they're wrong, and apologize when appropriate.
Recently, I stopped using the phrase "I really like (insert name)" and have switched to "
insert name) seems very likeable." I did this because a performer I like has turned out to be scum--maybe even criminal.
