Another Oprah lawsuit
Posted by Media Outrage on March 21st, 2008
They’re just starting to come out of the woodwork for the most powerful black woman in entertainment. A former guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show is suing Oprah’s Harpo Productions because she was allegedly pushed down a flight of stairs in the production studio on a visit to the show.
Via Suntimes:
An “Oprah Winfrey Show” audience member is suing Harpo Studios Wednesday after some overzealous guests allegedly caused her to fall down a flight of stairs.
On Dec. 5, 2006, Orit Greenberg went to Harpo Studios to be an audience member for the Oprah show, according to a lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court Wednesday.
Greenberg, along with an “excess number of patrons,” gathered in a waiting area before filing into the studio to be seated, the suit said. When the audience members were instructed to enter the studio and sit “where they wanted,” Greenberg claims she was pushed down stairs as the patrons “rushed the gate” while pushing and shoving one another.
The suit said Harpo management failed to properly control the crowd and was careless by allowing guests to seat themselves.
Greenberg allegedly suffered “severe and permanent injuries” from the fall, and is asking for more than $50,000 for medical care and other damages, the suit said.
