television talk shows in history of America and the show received

explain why this talk show becomes the most popular talk show in our world.
The Opera Talk Show becomes very famous. Winfrey
interviewed a plethora of public figures and everyday people during the show's
25-year history. Also it's popular because the show was highly influential, and
many of its topics penetrated into the American pop-cultural consciousness. In

enjoyable her dialogue with guests. Where its method mix with humor and Blink
while maintaining the seriousness of the subject and its value Humanity. Also Winfrey used the show as a platform to teach
and inspire, providing viewers with a positive, spiritually uplifting
experience by featuring book clubs, compelling interviews, self-improvement

Most popular episode/ analysis:
One of the
most famous episode it was On February 10, 1993, when Winfrey hosted a
rare prime-time interview with the pop singers Michael
Jackson, which became
the fourth most watched event in American television history as well as the
most watched interview ever, with an audience of 36.5 million. In this
interview, Jackson, an intensely private entertainer, had not given an
interview in 14 years. The event was broadcast live from Jackson's Neverland Ranch and was watched by 90 million people worldwide. Jackson discussed
missing out on a normal childhood and his strained relationship with his
father, Joe Jackson which made plenty of headlines throughout the years. When Michael
spoke with Oprah, he was extremely open about the sensitive subject, saying his
father called him ugly beat him and frightened him. "I love my father, but
I don't know him, Sometimes I do get angry. I don't know him the way I'd like
to know him," he said. "My mother's wonderful. To me, she's
perfection. I just wish I could understand my father Joe Jackson has repeatedly
denied any allegations that he beat Michael. Then after the meeting, Oprah says she was surprised that Michael was so candid in his
revelations about his father. "Even in saying it, [Michael tried] to
temper it by saying, 'Please, don't be mad at me, Joseph.' So obviously you
know that he still carried that fear and pain," she says. "Look in
his eyes when he starts to talk about his father. Also during the interview,
Jackson attempted to dispel many of the rumors surrounding him and told Winfrey
he tell Opera about his suffered from the skin-pigment disorder known , when
asked about the change in the color of his skin. While admitting to getting a
nose job, he denied all other plastic surgery rumors.
Technique/
Literary elements:
Oprah Talk Shaw uses techniques which is
different from others talk show programs to make the program more popular than
others. For example, the Oprah Talk Show uses a literary technique like in the
show, Oprah dialogue with the public directly without a barrier or restriction,
and she use different method of dialogue with the visitors or the guest of the
program. And the other thing is the technique the technology in the program,
like they have a very large studio , which makes it well-liked by the audience,
where it's comfortable and the number of its visitor increases just to see the
program directly, also the program use high resolution cameras and Digital
camera to attract people to watch programs and using the voices with high
quality and use of propaganda to encourage attendees and distribution of gifts
for the public to encourage attendance again to their desire to get gifts. in
addition to the program is famous because it use of the advertising and
promotion of the program and bring in celebrity artists, singers and
representatives to add Amusement in the program.
Sensitivity of culture:
Sometimes some of the programs affecting
the culture through characters who hosted the program or promotion and
advertising of goods is not loved by the people. For example, during the
meeting of Opera with the Pop singer Michael, she asked him about his action
front the camera during his filming of his songs, also she asked about what
people said about him like rumors about his relation with children as a harasser
and alters the original identity as a man with black skin. Before the show
people affected by the negative image of the pop singer, but after the meeting
people change their idea and negative image about Michael. Because through the
dialogue that took place between the Opera and Michael, he change all things
and rumors about him and he told Oprah that he didn't ignore his identity
because it's part of his childhood and nobody can forget his childhood until
his death.
The conclusion:
Because I'm a fan of the program which is looking for the truth of what
is displayed through the clear and give the evidence for the people. My opinion
of what I followed through the Oprah's show with the pop singer Michael
Jackson. Before I was like others who follow rumors about the pop singer Michael
and make judgment about him quickly
without any attempt to determine whether the information and the rumors about
him is true or not. After watching the
program not only people but also I have changed all my thoughts about Michael
and I realized that the community may have make quickly judged about him,
especially in the case of his molestation sex with kids, I understand that he
is just loves kids because it make him remember him his childhood in their
eyes, actions and their behavior and he said there is no evidence if he
molested them. And about his actions and behavior in singing it comes from his
emotional, sense of inner and it don't deliberately doing these movements, but
is only way to express himself and his feelings, also perhaps movements used as
a kind of fashion or style for a contemporary new generation and highlights the
freedom to express himself without thinking about the community that surrounds
it. This talk show gives people something positive in terms of show a good
image of the singer by make interview
with him and show the true fact about him that people don’t know about . Especially
after His death where Opera re-offer direct meeting between her and Michael and
where she realized from the meeting that all what Michael said is true and not
a lay and we can note the true thing of him during the true expressions of his
face to answer all questions that Opera asked him, he just was a quite frankly
without fear or shy or not deny something and every things is clear in his
sadness's eyes about the rumors that he heard from Oprah.
