Oprah Winfrey may be feeling the pressure over her fledgling network’s sputtering ratings.No, she INTENDED to skew a legitimate process by encouraging people to lie. The harm was done by kneecapping all those who play by the rules.
A tweet from the talk show host’s Twitter account asked followers, “Every 1 who can please turn to OWN especially if u have a Nielsen box,” in what seems to be a plea to boost ratings numbers.
Winfrey publically apologized for the tweet, which was subsequently deleted — after being informed that the move may have violated Nielsen policy prohibiting networks from influencing ratings.
“I removed the tweet at the request of Nielsen,” Winfrey said in a statement Monday. “ I intended no harm and apologize for the reference.”
