A little racial chauvinism? Which is worse, having your hair commented on by a radio host or being persecuted (not prosecuted) for rape by a DA!!!
Racial chauvinism is the old way; anything that puts the welfare of certain people over the People as a whole is disgusting. All racial chauvinists are scum. If your proud to be white or proud to be black, you're all the same in my book...

Well I think because most people see the Duke guys as getting over while the Rutgers girls as total victims

I don't know, maybe they weren't available. I'll tell you something though. The boys were innocent, but they should keep their faces off tv. Even though they are exonerated, it will still stick in some people's minds that they did something criminal. So the less exposure, the better. Oprah or any tv host would not be doing them a service if they had them on their show.

DUH! She's female, they're female. She's black, all but 2 of the players are black.
The girl was supposedly attacked is black. All are considered victims.
The Duke boys have been exonerated but are not being considered victims per say by the media. I hope this changes as they have no proof that the guys raped that girl. She should be charged with false accusations.

In case you haven't noticed, Oprah is a champion of everything black. She likes everyone but is especially happy when her guests who have excelled at something happen to be black. Some might call this reverse racism, but I admire her for what she has done for her people.

Wow..........so soon.
Ya I do see her be that way sometimes on her show and I just cringe and turn the channel.
Maybe that's why Ellen's show has won the Grammy or whatever in the past few years and not Oprah.

So it is now criminal to hire a stripper? I guess you have to vet her carefully to find out whether she is a lying.... well you get the drift.
As an answer, because they are black and women. Is she having the white girls on?

EXCUSE ME
The Duke boys did play a part in their effort. They did hire the woman to strip for them.
CAN YOU tell me ANYTHING the Rutgers team did to invite this on themselves other than playing in the championship.
Which one in the end was ASKING for it?

Good point. Maybe it just hasn't occured to her. I bet if you e-mailed her with this question, she would consider doing a show on it. It would make a good topic.
