The Next Oprah Has Cerebral Palsy
06.15.10This video has been all over Reddit and Digg and all those big Internet aggregators, but it merits an appearance on this little corner of the TV-obsessed internet as well: it’s Zach Anner’s pitch to Oprah for a travel show on her new network. Throughout the video, Anner displays charm and humor regarding his cerebral palsy while detailing a show about how to enjoy traveling even though plans may go awry:
“No obstacle is too big, no mountain is too high, no volcano is too hot, and no Atlantis is too underwater or fictional!”
I think it’s great that Zach’s looking to host a TV show, but he needs to set his sights a little higher now that he’s famous on the Internet. Forget Oprah’s backwater network, he could be a legitimate star on the Travel Channel or Discovery. And TLC is already lining up a new generation of palsied reality stars.

The current Oprah only causes it. Or some other cerebral malady, of this I’m certain.
Snooki has paved the way for people with disabilities who aspire to become famous. Bravo, Snooki.
This guy ain’t got shit on Geri from Facts of Life.
That’s not true. The yoga/pants joke will win every time.
Vote for him here.
