We just can’t imagine Chicago without Oprah, and guess what?  She may not be leaving after all.

Yesterday the internet was all abuzz about a report that Oprah Winfrey is getting ready to move her show to Los Angeles.

According to the Chicago Sun Times, Winfrey spokesman Don Halcombe denied a definitive plan exists, insisting “she has not made a decision yet” about her show’s future beyond 2011.
