People want to be heard. By putting up a notable name, it is the media's goal to make people think they will get a louder voice.....Unfortunately the truth is that they will just get drowned out by the thousands of responders and in turn, less of a voice.

Businesses that advertise with google are trying to make money. Apparently they see Yahoo Answers as a threat. The answers here tend to steer people away from pills and fad diets, and people who try to advertise in questions and answers here are quickly reported.

The same reason the Oprah's question was publicized - to get answers and to get people involved with this site.
