Oprah Lays Off OVER 250 Employees

After the final episode of Oprah's talk show a whole bunch of people are out of a job! On May 3rd Harpo Studios filed a tentative notice to layoff an "unspecified" number of employees.

A rep for Harpo Studios said "The process started on or about May 25 and is going on throughout the summer months...most of those are leaving us voluntarily". Yeah right...

This is a big contradiction from what the co-founder of Harpo said just a few months ago! Harpo employees were expected to transfer to the OWN but with the ratings going down and the future of the network looking shaky there's no room for new employment. Dang!

Oprah! Please improve your programming for the sake of your employees!!!
