Oprah lawsuit thrown out of court!


Oprah Winfrey has one less problem to worry about.
A federal judge has tossed out a Philadelphia writer’s $100 million lawsuit, which alleged Winfrey violated his copyright by reading on air without permission passages from a political booklet he penned.
Charles Harris claimed that on the Feb. 16, 2009 episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Winfrey read questions that were the same as in his work How America Elects Her Presidents.
The complaint stated that Harris had sent several copies of his booklet to the show in 2008, in hopes of gaining publicity during President Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. He said he never heard back from the show.
Harris claimed that “the language and structure of the questions were exactly the same,” adding that the use was “deliberate, willful, malicious, oppressive and without regard to [his] property rights.”
Winfrey said that the only question she asked that was identical to one in the book was, “Which one our presidents weighed the most?” and that facts are not copyrightable.
Winfrey filed a motion to dismiss and sought sanctions for a frivolous lawsuit. The judge ultimately declined to award Winfrey sanctions, saying Harris’ suit was filed in good faith.
Harris was seeking $150,000 for each “unlawful use,” plus statutory damages.
Meanwhile, Winfrey apparently wants to give Donald Trump a haircut!
Sources say the billionaire media mogul is keen to end her iconic show by getting her hands on the real estate mogul’s legendary locks.
According to New York Post gossip column Page Six,  the e-mail invitation to Trump’s office said, “The eyes of the world will be upon these episodes.
“This will become one of those historical television moments that will become iconic.”
