Woman sues Oprah’s studio
From the Associated Press
A woman claims in a lawsuit that she was injured in a dash for seats at Oprah Winfrey’s talk show in Chicago.
Orit Greenberg’s suit seeks $50,000 in damages. Greenberg claims Harpo Studios failed to control the audience on Dec. 5, 2006 and that, as a result, the crowd pushed her down a flight of stairs, causing “severe and permanent injuries.”
A Harpo spokeswoman said the studio doesn’t comment on pending litigation.
