I highly doubt she gave Amazon that much publicity freely. They had to have come to some agreement. Even so, think about it this way. She endorses the Kindle. How would it look if she came out on her show and touted another ereader. What would her viewers/followers/worshippers think?
I say 'worshippers' because I know people who read specifics books ONLY because they are on Oprahs book list. Also, noone has as much clout on the talk-show circuit as Oprah. Some people take what she says as gospel.
A shame, really.
But I digress. She has already supported the Kindle. It would not be condusive to her good relations with her viewers if she openly supported another ereader. I would suggest, therefore, that you bypass Oprah and choose another talkshow.
Ellen Degeneres is definatley a good choice. Also, Bonnie Hunt.
