The Oprah Winfrey Show to end in 2011

Oprah Winfrey told television executives in Las Vegas last week that she will end The Oprah Winfrey Show when the contract with distributor King World expires in six years.

We’ve heard this talk from the daytime maven twice before – once in 1997, before deciding to renew her contract through 2002; then in 2002, she announced that 2006 would be the perfect year for the show to end because it would be the anniversary of its 20th year in national syndication.

We have until 2011 to see if Oprah really will close the chapter on the TV behemoth.
