On CBS This Morning, Co-Host Norah O\u2019Donnell is speaking with The Oprah, well-known media mogul, about the impact The Oprah\u2019s television show had on America. Question: &#8220;I think you captured people\u2019s minds by talking about issues that people weren\u2019t talking about on television &#8212; race and sexual abuse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, before we play the answer here, the idea that we weren\u2019t talking about before The Oprah came along? They still say that to this day. How many times you hear Eric Holder? &#8220;You don\u2019t have the guts to have a conversation about race,&#8221; he said. Whereas it seems to me that\u2019s all this country does talk about. We\u2019re talking about race all the time. We can\u2019t get away from it, and reason we can\u2019t get away from it because the American left won\u2019t let anybody get away from it!<\/p>\n<p>But all that aside, here is the answer from that, here\u2019s the answer from media mogul The Oprah.<\/p>\n<p>O\u2019DONNELL: (crosstalk)<\/p>\n<p>WINFREY: The first time we did a show on alcoholism and there was a family of five and I was like, &#8220;Oh, my God. I didn\u2019t know that white people had dysfunction,&#8221; because I grew up thinking that all white people were like, uhhh, Leave It To Beaver. And so the first time I started having conversations with people with real dysfunctions, with real family issues from all parts of the country, it was a revelation to me.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-275775\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060518-Oprah-Leave-it-to-Beaver.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060518-Oprah-Leave-it-to-Beaver.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060518-Oprah-Leave-it-to-Beaver-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: She &#8220;grew up thinking that all white people were like Leave It To Beaver.&#8221; I\u2019ve never heard her say that before.
