The book is pretty weak, I actually read it. How do these people get on Oprah? Just this interview probably sold 10 000 copies.

See, you say that because you're analytical and check the facts. That kind of stuff is being exported to Asia. You gotta be holistic and big-picture, man!

He got on Oprah because he targets Oprah's demographic: credulous childrearing-age women. It really boils down to that fact alone, and being good doesn't enter into it.

As if to prove my point, I'm reading that Oprah is producing a new talkshow starring Jenny McCarthy, with the intent of promoting McCarthy's vaccines-are-bad crusade.

Science: NOT OPRAH'S STRONG POINT.

I think your comment has answered your question quite aptly.
