Will Oprah's show continue past 2011?

Voided

Thanks for the question, but it needs to be a little more specific.

Will she continue just on broadcast as she is now? (No way, odds are way too high)
Will she feature on a new similar talk show on her new OWN network by (what date) (quite possible)

Please feel free to repost with a more specific question. I would think the second would make a good market, but I'm not sure on the timeline. You can reply via email if you'd like to discuss.

Background:

Background: After 25 years as the reigning queen of daytime TV, Oprah Winfrey announced on her Friday, Nov. 20th show that she would end her popular NBC show in 2011.

Will the her adoring public convince her to continue her show past Sept 2011?
