Opray Winfrey Show comes to Meridian

Opray Winfrey Show comes to Meridian

January 14, 2008

Media megastar and Mississippi native Oprah Winfrey was at MSU's Riley Center in Meridian late last week to tape a portion of her daily television show that airs today. Meridian was chosen to launch the Best Life Challenge 2008, a national weight-loss and fitness campaign organized by her personal trainer Bob Greene (r). The city is being praised for its own version of the better-health program called "Just Lose It." A federal report last year listed Mississippi as No. 1 in obesity.
