Continuing her way toward total world domination, talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey has been named "Person of the Year" by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Winfrey was selected for using her talk show to bring light to issues important to the Norfolk, Va.-based animal rights group's mission, with episodes that have, for example, focused on puppy mills and the treatment of chickens and other animals in factory farms. Winfrey also went on a vegan diet for a week, and in April, dedicated an episode of her show to her late cocker spaniel Sophie, who died at age 13.

Winfrey has "used her powerful voice to defend those without one," PETA president Ingrid Newkirk said in a statemement. Winfrey, who was unavailable for comment, according to The Associated Press, will receive a plaque and a letter of appreciation.

Previous winners of the PETA award include U.S. Sen. Robert Byrd of West Virginia in 2007 and the founders of the San Francisco-based cleaning product company Method in 2006.

A Vegan diet for a week? That gets her bonus points with a group that would demand everyone be vegan at all times as well as other whacko views?
I think this probably has as much to do with her support of the "chosen" one as much as is it does her support of animals.

She's gonna need a lot more than a veggie diet for her phat@$$!!

she got on the band wagon in pa. to help gov. rendell shove new dog laws down our throat.

Mpritchard I'll second that motion!

I went hog hunting with a buddy last week and we actually caught Oprah. We got one dog cut up pretty bad and she just flat whipped the catch dogs. Maybe next time.

i think that all of the peta people need to be sent to there own inland and left there with there animal and tell them they can never leave the place.
i have read that peta kills more animals then they find homes. that is sad that they say they help when they just kill the animals.

Ya, I read that too. They are just another bunch of rip off artists, getting rich off the radical lefts emotions.

how would you like to be rescued by peta -


they cut your balls off - shove ya in a cage for a week then its gas chamber and the furnace-
