Like jerry Springer， Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top， but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and difference， quality （质量） of life. Contents are from teaching your children les- sons， managing your work week to getting to know your neighbours.
Cormpared to Oprah， the jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a ”final word“。 He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully， this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.
Clear as it is， the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show’s main viewers are middle class Americans. Most of these people have the time， money， and ability to deal with life‘s tougher problems. Jerry Springer， on the other hand， has more of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love， rela- tionship， sex， money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show’s exploitation.
