Oprah accused ofn
show editor as scapei
rmine coir®
Winfrey
AMARILLO (AP)—The person
responsible for editing on Oprah
Winfrey show on mad cow disease
said the talk-show host told him to
“cut that boring beef guy out,” ac
cording to a former senior producer
of the program.
LaGrande Green, who was fired
from the “Oprah Winfrey Show"
last summer,
testified that
lames Kelley,
the producer in
charge of edit
ing an episode
on mad cow dis
ease, told him
Winfrey wanted
statements by
Gary Weber of
the National
Cattlemen’s
Beef Association edited out.
Weber had said on the show
that cattle groups had asked for a
voluntary ban on feeding ground
up cattle parts to cattle herds. But
that statement was edited out of
the show.
“He (Kelley) said Oprah said.
‘Cut that boring beef guy out. He’s
rambling on and on and on,’”
Green said.
In testimony videotaped in De
cember and played for jurors Mon
day, Green said Kelley had told him
Winfrey blamed Kelley for poor
editing of the show titled "Danger
ous Foods” and for causing a $10.3
million slander lawsuit filed by
Texas cattlemen.
“He (Kelley) said that Oprah was
blaming him and that he felt like a
scapegoat,” Green said.
Charles Babcock, an attorney
for Winfrey, attempted to show
Green as a disgruntled former em
ployee who was let go, in part, be
cause he is a self-admitted sex ad
dict who frequently left the Harpo
Production studios to go to adult
book stores.
"As a former sexual-abuse vic
tim, I consider myself a sexual ad
dict and sometimes felt the need to
leave the building and go to an
adult bookstore or walk around,”
Green said.
When Babcock asked him if that
was affecting his performance on
the job, Green said “a lot of things
were affecting my performance.”
When Babcock asked him if he
was upset about being let go, Green
said: “I felt it was little unfair.”
