Winfrey: Drudge Story ‘Categorically Untrue’

Oprah Winfrey has issued a denial of a Drudge story claiming the talk show host doesn’t want to allow Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) to appear on the show:

The item in today’s Drudge Report is categorically untrue. There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over.
