Oprah Glorifies Prostitution and The Moonlite Bunny Ranch - April 29, 2009

The theme of April 29, 2009 Oprah Winfrey show is getting a glimpse into how different people live.



I am a huge Oprah Winfrey fan but why she would choose to highlight the Moonlite Bunny Ranch on her show is beyond me. I've seen the Bunny Ranch and it's prostitute workers highlighted on other news shows and didn't care but since Oprah Winfrey is supposed to be a woman's advocate I'm having trouble understanding why she's glorifying prostitution. (Just call me old fashioned.)

Here's a picture of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch (a legalized brothel) that was taken in 2006. It looks far from glamorous if you ask me.

I wonder what Oprah Winfrey would say about Alana Love, the 20-year-old woman who began working at the Bunny Ranch when she was 7 months pregnant to "better the life of her child."Oprah, seriously, what are you thinking?

The Greenest Guy In Hollywood

Also featured on today's Oprah Winfrey Show is the "Greenest Guy In Hollywood." Ed Begley Jr. from the Planet Green's Life With Ed is married to Rachelle Carson-Begley who calls herself a princess. The couple lives a simple and green life even though her husband is a star.

Small Community In Maine

Oprah Show viewers also got a rare look into Frenchboro Maine. A small community with an old fashioned one room schoolhouse where children from kindergarten to grade eight gather for school. With one teacher that also acts as a school coach it makes for a unique experience for students who will later travel to a much larger high school.
