An Oprah lemming is one that reads everything Oprah recommends. They don;t bother to read about it to figure out if it is something that the lemming may or may not like.

I don't mind at all if a few mostly-decent books get a bit of extra promotion. Where's the crime? Oprah's not a factor here in the UK, but we do/did have a direct equivalent in Richard & Judy. (Heh, just looked it up, and the TV show ended in 2009. I'm so in touch.)

I don't mind when good books get attention. But
No Country for Old Men is an example of a book that Oprah should never have pushed.
