Oprah dumps Oz.

The Dr. Oz media empire just took a blow from the woman who helped make him famous: Oprah Winfrey. According to New York Daily News, "'The Daily Dose With Dr. Oz,' a 'radio minute' produced by Oprah's Harpo Productions, will end May 29." 

Even more interesting: Oz's spot, which aired on 150 stations, may be replaced with "A Better Life With Dr. Sanjay Gupta" — the CNN chief medical correspondent. 

While there has been no explanation for the switch, the news comes just over a week after Oz faced heavy criticism for featuring questionable science on The Dr. Oz Show. The public scorn has caused some to question whether Oz — who was a medical expert on Oprah's show starting in 2004 — is now tarnishing Oprah's legacy. 

In particular, a group of doctors and professors from across the country signed a letter addressed to Columbia's dean of medicine — where Oz has a faculty position — calling the medical school's affiliation with the TV star "unacceptable." 

Oh well he's done now. Once Oprah throws you to the curb, your ass is over.

You know personally I am going to give a great deal of the credit to John Oliver.

Because without his incredibly insightful reports about Dr. Oz I am not sure that Oprah would have felt enough pressure to essentially admit that she is a quack magnet. (Yes I'm looking at you Dr. Phil.)
