Broken promises ended Oprah's friendship with the Obamas?

Ever wondered why Oprah campaigned
for Barrack Obama in 2008 but not in
2012? Insiders claim Barack and
Michelle broke promises to Oprah
Winfrey leading to a bitter rift between
them...

From The NY Post

"Everyone remembers that Oprah
went all out for Obama during the
2008 presidential election. What
was not reported was that, in
return, Oprah was promised
unique access to the White House
if Obama won. She’d get regular
briefings on initiatives and a
heads-up on programs to give her
material for her fledgling cable
network, OWN.
“Oprah intended to make her
unique White House access a part
of her new network,” a source
close to Oprah told me. “There
were big plans, and a team was
put together to come up with
proposals that would have been
mutually beneficial. “But none of
that ever happened. Oprah sent
notes and a rep to talk to Valerie
Jarrett, but nothing came of it. It
slowly dawned on Oprah that the
Obamas had absolutely no
intention of keeping their word
and bringing her into their
confidence.”
Oprah did not campaign for
Obama in the 2012 race, and she
has been absent from his battles
on gun control, immigration
reform and the environment. She
claims she is too busy to get
involved in politics, even though
she hosted a fund-raiser for
Newark Mayor Cory Booker, who
won a US Senate seat last week.
Oprah’s friends publicly dismiss
the idea that she had a falling out
with Obama. They note that she
phoned Michelle Obama right
after the 2012 election to
congratulate her. They say
Michelle invited her to have dinner
with the first family. But the
dinner never took place, and
Oprah continues to be frozen out.
“Oprah was hoping there would
be a genuine change in the
atmospherics,” one of her friends
told me. “But there hasn’t been.
Clearly, she is being rebuffed at
the level of Michelle and Valerie.
And, just as obviously, President
Obama hasn’t interfered on
Oprah’s behalf.” During Obama’s
first term, I argued in my book
“The Amateur” that Michelle was
jealous of Oprah, furious that he
was seeking her advice.
“For her part, Oprah doesn’t like
being with Michelle, because the
first lady is constantly one-upping
the president and anybody else
around her,” said an Oprah
adviser. “Oprah has struck back
by banning the Obamas from her
O, The Oprah Magazine . . . It
probably hurts Oprah more than
Obama, who, if he had his head
screwed on straight, would have
flown to California and begged
Oprah to help him save
ObamaCare.
“But Obama hasn’t budged, and
neither has Oprah. She’s hurt and
angry, and I seriously doubt that
Oprah will ever make up with the
Obamas. She knows how to hold
a grudge.”
