5. Tie In To "The Butler"
The interview that Oprah gave to Entertainment Tonight was for her upcoming movie, "The Butler". The film is based on the real-life account of Eugene Allen, who was an African American butler in the White House for 34 years. The whole buzz that this interview has gotten can only help to raise awareness of the movie starring Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey.

4. Keeps Oprah Relevant
Oprah is not Oprah if any of her moves are not accounted for. Every step that the media mogul takes is worth talking about and this is just another way to stay relevant. Oprah is so well-known in America that it's apalling to us that anybody outside of these 50 states does not know who she is and would suffer from racism.

3. Zero In On Racism
This summer has been loaded heavily on a side of America we thought we had overcome. Paula Deen used the "n-word" and was subsequently fired from the Food Network, while "Big Brother" contestants have been making extremely racist remarks on the CBS reality show. Racism is still existent and if Oprah still suffers from it, think of all those everday people that do as well.

2. Shopgirl Can Defend Herself
The Zurich shopgirl has been lashing out on the talkshow queen, even calling her a liar. What better way to clear her name, if she's saying the truth, to confront Oprah and clear things up. Both women can sit down and talk things out and make peace.

1. More Ratings For OWN
Imagine what a ratings bonanza this Oprah special would give the struggling cable network? This would be a hit for OWN and will have people tuning in.
