    Oprah will be on TV for as long as she likes.....

    Oprah makes far more money than Imus or Joe Scarborough...probably more than MSNBC. But the constitiency she makes the most more for are the stations that carry her. They make money carrying her show, and for most she is the lead-in for their local news. Everywhere Oprah is the lead-in they are ranked number one in the local news.
