Oprah Winfrey has landed a deal with Discovery Communications, which will give the media mogul her own cable channel called, OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.
The new network will replace the Discovery Health Channel in 2009 and simulcast in High Definition. Oprah is expected to be named chairman of the new network by the end of 2008.
“The focus of the channel will be the focus of Oprah’s brand, which is to educate and inspire people to live the best life they can,” says Discovery Communications chief, David Zaslav.
Can anything stop Oprah? It seems like she has her heart set on taking over the world, which may not be a bad thing if you’re a fan of her products.
