Since 2004, Time magazine has six times conducted a poll to name the 100 most influential people in the world. Only one person has appeared on all six lists, Oprah Winfrey. In 1976, Oprah Winfrey left Tennessee State University as an honor student and set out to further her interest in media, nurtured by working at the university’s radio station as a newscaster. After she got the first job after graduation, she began to break the perceived prejudice for a young black woman in America, becoming the first black woman and the youngest person ever to work as a reporter for WTVF-TV. Reporting the news didn’t seem to be a perfect fit for her though, as she had a habit of getting too emotionally involved in the stories she was reporting on, which didn’t always please her superiors. It did, however, make her ideally suited for a more interactive platform instead. In 1986, a talk show called "AM Chicago" on the WLS-TV station was ranking last in the ratings. Oprah was able to turn around the show’s falling ratings, taking it straight to number one and in the process setting down the foundations for a new style of talk show. Oprah had been able to be appealed to all ages, races and status holders. Her secret? She wasn’t just talking, she was also listening. Her fearless courage in holding up her own dark past to the public meant she could really connect with her guests and her audience.
