				"The New York Times reports Oprah Winfrey's $55 million, three-year deal with XM Satellite Radio, announced yesterday, assures that the talk diva will remain among the wealthiest, best-known personalities in America--and all for 30 minutes of work a week, 39 weeks a year."
 
 
Friends and neighbors, that works out to about $470,000 for a half hour of radio time.
 
 
OMG.

				| Satellite Radio so far appears to be a niche market geared towards a younger audience so I'm not sure if Oprah's traditional audience will benefit much from this added convinience. |
