US talk show host Oprah Winfrey says she was the victim of racism during a recent visit to Switzerland.
She says an assistant refused to serve her in an upmarket handbag shop in Zurich.
Winfrey, one of the richest women in the world, was apparently told the bags on display were “too expensive” for her.
This incident came amid a political row over plans by some Swiss towns to ban asylum seekers from being allowed in some public places.

I call bullshit on this story.
Unless it's on video, it didn't happen and she is making it up for publicity.
Oprah is the biggest, fattest bullshit artist on the planet. She's a disgrace, and a blight on the planet.
The fact that she has even one person that listens to her is yet another reason I fear for the future my kids will have to grow up in.

Agreed Jim. Everyone knows who she is. And I'm sure she had a huge security presence around her. This story is nonsense.

I believe the story.
Of course you do.
I'm sure it has nothing to do with her diminishing relevance, failing television network, and an insatiable need to make everything about race.
FFS, she recently compared Trayvon Martin to Emmett Till.
She's a shameless attention whore. You're smarter than to be falling for her bullshit.

I've seen her without makeup/hair/clothes and she's unrecognizable and if that's how she was when shopping then I can see someone not recognizing her.
The store owner is now saying there may have been a communication issue because the clerk isn't very good with the English language.

What the fuck do you mean "of course you do"? Unlike you I took several things into consideration instead of focusing on her celebrity & in general dislike of her.

Maybe if it wasn't a pattern of her complaining when stores don't kiss her ass I'd have given it some thought... but she's done this same shit before.

You are being a bit ambiguous there jimbone please feel free to share with us your true feelings about Oprah.
The manager of the shop says it was a big “misunderstanding”. However a witness to the incident said the assistant looked Oprah up and down, shook her head as if to say “not for you jigaboo!” And turned her back on her.
The manager then apparently realised who it was and the $35,000 bag in question was taken down from its protective display lickety split to let Oprah examine the merchandise.
Oprah has her own TV network?! Really? What shows day got nigger?

Just a few days ago, Oprah gave some interview where she talked about racism...convenient that this occurred so soon thereafter.
Boo-hoo, Oprah. My heart bleeds for you and all the other niggers who aren't immediately handed a $35,000 bag to look over. Maybe if you all didn't put so damn much grease in your hair, they wouldn't have to worry about it fucking up the handbags.

Yeah, that was her stupid nonsensical comparison of a black boy being lynched back during segregation to Trayvon Martin.
SHE IS A FUCKING MORON.
I'm surprised she's not a goddamned Scientologist.
I want her to die in a fire so bad I'm burping gasoline.

Again I'm getting confused signals here.
I wish you wouldn't sit on the fence so much on the Oprah issue.
What shows are on the Oprah network? Re runs of The Cosby Show?

Anyone know what's on the Oprah network?
Re runs of her talk shows and the “film at 11” is always The Colour Purple?
