Dunno if that makes any difference but they were talking about a reality TV host. To be honest with you I think reality TV is very kitschy compared to a regular TV. Something that appeals to the unsophisticated, unwashed, lowest common denominator masses out there.
Personally, I wouldn't vote for anyone who works for, hosts a, appeared on or not ashamed to say they watch a reality TV show like Maury. It makes no difference what their policy is, they will never get my vote

Just keeping the seat warm to give Michelle Obama time to decide on 2020 or 2024.
Meh, not really..
Joe Rogan likes Oprah, or at least he thinks she is trying to help people.. but watch him demolish her on her promotion of the book "The Secret"
On the other hand, you have reality tv shows. I don't watch any rn because I am single, but I watched them for about 3 years when I lived with my ex-gf.. she watched everything from Real Housewives of ___________ to Million Dollar Listings, The Bachelor/ette, Survivor and more..
I couldn't stand Real Housewives, but the other ones were entertaining on some level.. Not a really sophisticated level per se, but the strategy involved, the alignments, socializing and conspiring and drama that happens in those shows can be compelling. I think it's a bit exploitive, and some reality shows are extremely exploitive, but most of the time the people are willing participants.
Again, not something I choose to watch on my own, but I wouldn't say that most television is particularly sophisticated compared to reality shows, unless you're talking about Real Housewives. Either I am retarded or I still have no idea what the point of that show is to this day.

MARY GREEN and ALE RUSSIAN February 28, 2018
There’s only one thing that could make Oprah Winfrey run for president in 2020.
Amid calls for her to consider a run for the White House — from fans as well as her closest friends — “I went into prayer,” she tells PEOPLE in the magazine’s new cover story. “ ‘God, if you think I’m supposed to run, you gotta tell me, and it has to be so clear that not even I can miss it.’ And I haven’t gotten that.”
The media mogul and star of the new movie A Wrinkle in Time found herself in the political spotlight after her inspiring speech at the 2018 Golden Globes while accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award. Winfrey had the crowd of Hollywood’s biggest stars on their feet and in tears with her moving words and promise that “a new day is dawning.” She was surprised to hear the immediate response the rest of the country had.
“When I walked off with Reese [Witherspoon], I thought, ‘I got that done,’ ” she says. “It wasn’t until I was back in the press room that they said, ‘Do you realize you’re trending?’ ”
Winfrey says her best friend Gayle King urged her to take the possibility seriously and peppered her with messages of support from others who would back her.
“I had people—wealthy, billionaires—calling me up and saying, ‘I can get you a billion dollars. I can run your campaign,”‘ she reveals. “That many people saying something made me think, ‘Am I at least supposed to look at the question?’ ”
In the issue, the mogul opens up about working with Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling and young newcomer Storm Reid on the highly anticipated A Wrinkle in Time and her emotional decision to finally say #MeToo and talk about her experience with sexual abuse.
Winfrey also says she had no regrets about not raising children with longtime partner Stedman Graham, saying instead that the South African girls she helps through her Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls have been “enough.”
“It was just the right combination of mentor, mother, leader, guide. Just to see all of them blossom into these flourishing human beings,” Winfrey says. “They delight me. Make me laugh a lot. They have surprised me in ways that have brought wonder and great joy.”
Now in her 60s, and after decades of being a comfort to millions all around the world, Winfrey still says making people happy is what she loves most.
“Nothing makes me happier than to see other people in their purest moments of joy,” she admits. “Sometimes, honest to goodness, I’m just sitting around thinking, “What could I do to make somebody feel really good today?”

LOL, and if a "conservative" said that, the government media and late nite talking heads would have a field day.Amid calls for her to consider a run for the White House — from fans as well as her closest friends — “I went into prayer,” she tells PEOPLE in the magazine’s new cover story. “ ‘God, if you think I’m supposed to run, you gotta tell me, and it has to be so clear that not even I can miss it.’ And I haven’t gotten that.”

Celebrities Call Mike Pence ‘Mentally Ill’ For Talking To God, Then Pray Oprah Gets A Sign From God To Run http://dailycaller.com/2018/03/01/ce...-god-oprah-god
This is perfect. If Oprah runs she is ordained by God. How could she lose if God told her to run?
Why not the only good human left? And by that I obviously mean Dolly Parton. #Dolly2020

The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
