When she gave away those cars, she gave every one of those people a multi-thousand dollar tax debt that had to be paid on that car. If it was a $30,000 car, then she just saddled each of those audience members with a $10,000 tax bill.

All she really did was force an audience of suckers to buy a sponsor's expensive new car, not of their choice, at a steep discount, as an advertisement.

I go to the Oprah Show, and walk out with an expensive car I don't want, and can't afford, but better pay for or I can go to jail. Thanks Oprah.
