Original Note:
False. This video has been edited, taken out of context and given a misleading headline. In the HBO interview from which the clips were taken, Oprah Winfrey was not condoning child sexual abuse but discussing grooming and dynamics that can arise in situations of abuse. https://www.reuters.com/article/world/false-claim-oprah-winfreys-comments-appear-to-condone-child-abuse-idUSKBN22N2M5/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/apr/28/facebook-posts/claims-oprah-condones-pedophilia-take-her-comments/
