PETA has named Lady O its "Person of the Year" for 2008.

The major animals-rights organization said Oprah uses her fame to help the less fortunate (including animals) and expose instances of animal cruelty.

This year on her show, Oprah spotlighted puppy-mill abuses and poor conditions for animals on factory farms. She also encouraged a guest to give up meat for a vegan diet.

  • Dear Oprah,

    Thank you for supporting eco-terrorism. What's the life of a human being to an animal's life anyway? We are many, some are few. So what if a terrorist organization like PETA is allowed to continue killing people if it's for a good...
