See, now this is just one of the reasons I love Oprah! I really respect this woman. I had been so disappointed in how she had defended author James Frey, especially after the huge expose of his lies. She defended him because she believed what he wrote -- really believed it. But today, she has him on her show and she is pinning him to the wall with her questions! Right on. He can't even speak at times b/c he has no explaination for the lies. Oprah looks as if she might shed a tear b/c of how she was duped. She even apologized for what she said on the Larry King Live show when she called in to support James Frey.

I watched that show too! I read the book and bought another book just so I could share it with friends. Now to find out he embellished it for selling sake, well what can you expect from an addict!? Glad you're back! Hope to see you tonight!! It's FRIDAY!!!!
