Did Oprah make a mistake? Will she "Howard Stern" herself into obscurity?
"What will become of Oprah’s peerless influence on the popular culture?" asks The Daily Beast. "The media firmament is littered with megastars who left a sure thing, either by choice or coercion, only to see their candlepower dim and their relevance fade away. Jerry Seinfeld is now a bit player on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Rosie O’Donnell is hosting a radio show. Howard Stern is on satellite. Tom Brokaw is political analyst on MSNBC. And Ted Koppel—has anybody seen him lately?"
