Say it ain't so. A report circulating on the Internet this weekend says the Queen of Daytime, the woman who used her influence to help elect Barack Obama president, will step down from her daily chat show in 2011.

Oprah is launching the "OWN," (Oprah Winfrey Network) in conjunction with Discovery Communications and it is expected she will leave her nationally syndicated show to focus primarily on developing the programming and online content to shape the brand of her new network.

Harpo Productions released a statement and said Oprah's contract is up for renewal in 2011, but the Queen Gabber "has not made a final decision as to whether she will continue her show in syndication beyond that."
