Inbreeding Among Oprah's Experts
There are data to support that inbreeding results in retardation.
The interrelationships between Oprah and her experts and among Oprah's experts may not be well-known.
For example, many use the same publisher, many endorse each other's products, many appear on the same media outlets.
A link at the bottom of this page will take you to a mind map that graphically demonstrates some of these relationships.
The map is not a complete representation. It is only a veneer-deep representation.
For example, investments by Oprah or her experts in the media companies publishing their works was not researched.
Also, not all relationships were mapped out. This is for two main reasons. The first is, in the opinion of Oprahcide.com, there is no need to spend more time and effort to demonstrate what we feel is obvious at this point. The second is that if this is not enough to convince you or at least make you think that something unsavory is happening, more of these relationships will likely make no difference to you.
The mind map was created in FreeMind and is hosted at FreeMindShare.com.
When you link to the map, you will see some "dots" along the top. As you pass your cursor over them, context information will be displayed including how to navigate the map. This is the link to the mind map.
