Oprah audience 'pushed woman down stairs'
A woman claims in a US lawsuit that she was injured in a dash for seats at Oprah Winfrey’s talk show in Chicago.
Orit Greenberg’s lawsuit seeks some $50,000 (€32,000) in damages.
She claims Harpo Studios failed to control the audience on December 5, 2006.
The lawsuit says audience members were told to sit wherever they wanted. The crowd allegedly pushed Greenberg down a flight of stairs, causing “severe and permanent injuries”.
A Harpo Studios spokeswoman said the studio did not comment on pending litigation.
