Aspiring Actress Sues Oprah Winfrey Show: The Oprah Winfrey Show was sued for fraud Thursday by aspiring actress Mary Shea of Los Angeles after the TV show did not put the woman on camera or air her video last November. The suit says the show, which did a segment on “Hollywood Hopefuls,” had promised Shea and 16 other aspiring talents that they would be on camera while Oprah Winfrey asked them questions and showed their audition-videos. None of that happened, says the suit, which seeks unstated damages. (Filed May 9, 1990. Case No. BC000739)
