Sigh, there is a lot of misinformation circulating about Oprah Winfrey’s support of Kamala Harris.
Oprah expressed her support for Harris throughout the campaign, including hosting a virtual celebrity-attended event that was viewed by more than 300,000 people on YouTube.
However, a few days ago, the Washington Examiner, in an article titled ‘How Kamala Harris Topped $1 Billion,’ said, “On October 15th, Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Productions in West Hollywood, California “I had ten thousand dollars,” he wrote.
Let’s talk all about the 2024 election.
Oprah herself denied this. When TMZ asked her if she was paid for the ad, she responded, “That’s not true. I didn’t get paid at all.” “Oprah Winfrey has never paid any personal fees during her campaign and has not received any fees from Harpo,” Harpo said.
Yes. The Harris campaign’s FEC filings show it paid $500,000 twice to Oprah-founded Harpo for event production costs. Event production costs are not particularly unusual for a campaign that spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on various events. A look at Donald Trump’s FEC filings shows similar expenses. You could argue that it’s too much! it’s okay! Know what you’re talking about!
If you want to talk about celebrities getting paid for advertising, pay attention to what influencer Tana Mongeau said in September: “I’ve been offered a lot of money to support political parties. I’ve been offered millions of dollars.” It’s worth it. democrats!
great. We are very happy to report on misinformation that has persisted for over 4 years!
