"Everybody gets a car! Everybody gets a car!"

It seems like an honest gesture, perhaps too good to be true. But i'm not going to be cynical (welcome to Cynical Island: population, me), what's there to be cynical about? I remember watching an episode a few weeks ago on 'The Panel' (Channel 10) showing Oprah-show-crowd members going insanely hysterical.

If you've ever watched
Oprah, you'll notice that at the end of each show, there's usually a gift of some sort, typically based on the subject of the show. If it's a musical artist, the audience receives a CD, if it's an author, they receive a book.

In this case, the crowd were going insanely hysterical as they had just received a copy of 'O' magazine
(Oprah's monthly magazine which features herself on the cover....every month). It would surprise me if any of the fanatic women in that audience didn't already have a subscription to the monthly insight of Oprah's media empire. They went nuts, as if they had never seen a magazine before in their life.

You'd feel somewhat inferior compared to the audience Oprah had today.
They each received a Pontiac G6.
