10 years of best sellers how the landscape has changed - 0 views

    In this Article Minzesheimer discusses Oprah Winfrey's effect on the popular things to read in America. The best sellers have been influenced hugely over the years. The article discussing J.K. Rowling's influence and Oprah's influence all in the same article. This shows me how relevant Oprah has been in the reading of our country. To be put in the same category as the writer of Harry Potter, she must be making a big effect. The article mentions Oprah as being "publishing's darling" and goes into talking about the Oprah effect. This article gives good background information on the effects Oprah has made in reading over the years.
