Winfrey Inks $55 Million Deal 2/10/06
Oprah Winfrey has won a $55 million three-year deal with XM Satellite
Radio to launch new channel Oprah And Friends in September (06).
The talk show queen will have her own program covering fitness, health
and self-improvement topics with guests that also appear on US TV's The
Oprah Winfrey Show.
The Washington DC-based business, eager to compete with rival company Sirius'
shock jock Howard Stern, has also signed other large contracts such as an
11-year, $650 million deal with America's Major League Baseball.
