(383 posts)57. She owes her "success" to Oprah.
The only reason we even know Gayle King is because she is Oprahs best friends for years. I also think she might have been her producer. Thats her only claim to fame .just like Dr. Phil. Furthermore, we might say J.D. Vance owe his career to Oprah because she highlighted his book. You know, Oprahs Book Club. She had him on her show and publicized the hell out of that lousy book. She is quite the star maker. Lol.

She didn't do any of that. She promoted rockets as a way to dispose waste into space. Her stupidity is NOT uplifting. nt
