I just read a post quoting the alleged sales clerk, "Adriana N.” who told the Swiss newspaper SonntagsBlick that Winfrey’s story is “absolutely untrue.”

The clerk further stated: "I even asked her if she wanted to take a closer look at the bag. Mrs. (sic) Winfrey looked around in the store again, but did not say anything further,” Adriana told the paper. “Then she went downstairs with her companion. My colleague held the door open for them. They were not even five minutes in our store.”

Hmmm. Well now. Could it be that Oprah actually made up this story?

And the people who proudly wrap themselves up in it are simply beyond all reason and hope.
