Meanest Story nominee: Oprah's mom tells all!

Publication: National Enquirer
Date: 4 April 2011

Do you want to know bad things about Oprah Winfrey? The editors of the magazines owned by AMI think you do. If there is trash about Oprah in the tabloids, it will be in the Star or the Globe or the low rent Examiner or even more likely, in the Flagship publication of AMI, the National Enquirer.

This week, it's the Flagship telling us that Oprah's mom is in the mood to spill the beans, and we mean a WHOLE LOTTA BEANS. Here are the sub-headlines.

• Hush money fails
  
• Confession of love affair with Gayle
  
• Bald Oprah lost all her hair
  
• Her deadly drugs to lose weight
  
• What really happened to Oprah's son and where he is today
  

This gets a nomination for Meanest Story of the Week.
