Oprah to quit her show…

Good afternoon Netizens...

V titan Oprah Winfrey is to quit her hit daily show when her contract ends in five years - so she can concentrate on putting child predators behind bars. She told CNN's Larry King that she plans to dedicate her time to heroic causes when her show Oprah ends in 2012.

In an interview that aired on Tuesday, she told the CNN anchorman, "I have four or five years left on my show, and when I'm done with that contract, I'm done. Then I want to change the laws, state-by-state for child predators in this country; and that's what I want to have done."

"I won't be satisfied until that is done. The children of the United States are being stolen, raped, tortured, and killed by sexual predators. I want the laws to change."

It's too bad about her show, but it is great that someone is finally doing something about child predators.
