With only 2 1/2 billion bucks banked, a one-trillion-dollar judgment could have Oprah’s Montecito moving vans rolling into the projects, or so we fear!
In a ‘National Enquirer’ release, media mogul, Oprah Winfrey, and her production company, Harpo, are being sued under intellectual property law for one-trillion-dollars by a Bronx, New York, writer, Damon Lloyd Goffe, who claims portions of his work “A Tome of Poetry” were plagiarized in Oprah’s “Pieces of My Soul” which sold 650 million copies online at $20 per copy.
The lawsuit was filed July 31 in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
Damon further states in the filing that:
Oprah Winfrey did confess in April of 2008 to seizing original works of authorship in literature and publishing via the internet on website www2.willsmithshow.bravo2.net [website is no longer up] the first draft of ‘A Tome of Poetry’ under the title, ‘Pieces of My Soul’ without conveyance or operation of law.
