Oprah Winfrey is expected to announce September 9th, 2011 as the final air date for her long-time running talk show, "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
It's unclear what reasons are prompting Oprah to end production of her show, or if the show will move to the newly-formed Oprah Winfrey Network in 2011. The new television network "OWN" is expected to replace the cable channel Discovery Health within a few years.
In a message to syndicate stations airing "Oprah," Harpo Incorporated President Tim Bennett thanked stations for their long-time support.
"Tomorrow, Oprah will announce live on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' that she has decided to end what is arguably one of the most popular, influential and enduring programs in television history," Bennett wrote Thursday in his note to affiliated stations. "We want to thank you for the partnership and friendship we have shared over the years."
"The Oprah Winfrey Show" will celebrate 25 years of being on the air in September 2011.
