I would love to know the real story on this one, but no TV organization is as secretive as Oprah Winfrey's.
Maybe she just wanted to remind her staff who runs the daily TV show, but Monday Winfrey did something that is almost never done on daily talk show television: She pulled the plug on an episode of her show on the same day that it was supposed to air.
The episode was supposed to be a 10-year remembrance of the school shooting at Columbine High School, but after viewing the episode, Winfrey thought it focused too much on the two killers and canceled it on the spot.
