Internet rumors and also edits made here on Wikinews and Wikipedia, have been the victims of a recent hoax that the talk show host Oprah Winfrey has been found dead in her Chicago, Illinois home. The rumors are considered to be a hoax, connected with the online group known as Anonymous. Other reports say that the website 4chan.org is responsible for starting the rumor which began to spread quickly over the internet. The rumors started after a statement Winfrey made on a recent show, defending a United States Senate bill against pedophiles and child rapists saying a pedophile group has "9,000 penises" harming children. She was referring to a comment someone, left on her website claiming to be a pedophile. Wikinews can confirm through anonymous sources that the rumor was started by the group Anonymous and the website 4chan.

1 and 2
also it was actually ebaums. those crazy guys and their shenanigans
its so sad when eBaums has to try to take credit for something they didn't do. Its not our fault that eBaums sits in the corner and waits for something to happen. Nice try though.
You're no stranger to fail.
You don't know the rules, and neither do you.
Plus it was ebaums.
eBaums did it
It's just like Ebaumsworld to do this kind of thing. What those guys get up to is just completely tasteless.
ebaums did it
Ebaums did it
After further research I can safely conclude that it was those fuckers at ebaumsworld.com that did it.
It was clearly ebaumsworld who did it. After all The stories and information posted on /b/ are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted there as fact. So there's no way it could have come from there since nobody could be that stupid amirite?
those bastards at ebaums world hacked my hotmail
Why did she have to died? It's such a sad story. I cried 9000 times reading this.
Does Oprah not understand? IT'S OVER NINE-THOUSAND!!!! Anonymous: We are legion, for we are many.
Bad Eubaum's.. they just had to do this horrible thing.. shame on them
