Oprah Winfrey has launched her own radio station.
The talk-show giant unveiled 'Oprah and Friends' on XM Satellite Radio channel today (25.09.06).
The 24-hour station will play the highlights of her TV show as well as special segments hosted by regular contributors to her chat show including best friend Gayle King, fitness expert Bob Greene and poet Maya Angelou.
Other shows will focus on finance, style, relationships and spiritual wisdom.
Meanwhile, a teacher has refused to stop his campaign to get Oprah Winfrey into the White House - despite the threat of legal action.
Lawyers for the talk-show host have ordered Patrick Crowe to stop selling his book - "Oprah for President: Run Oprah Run" - and to stop using a website containing her name and a toll-free number whose last five digits spell out 'Oprah'.
They claim the publications cause "damage and irreparable injury" to her production company, Harpo.
The bemused Kansas City businessman - who is behind a long-running campaign to get the media mogul into the Oval Office - said: "I'm genuinely puzzled. If Oprah asked you to run for president, would that be a compliment or would you threaten her with legal action?"
