WASHINGTON (AP) — Michelle Obama is going on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
The White House says the first lady is returning to
her Chicago hometown Friday to tape one of the last original episodes of
Winfrey's nationally syndicated talk show.
Mrs. Obama will discuss plans to launch a
nationwide campaign to support families with someone in the military.
The first lady has become an advocate for military
families. She has traveled to military installations to talk with service
members about their needs and concerns and has urged Americans to volunteer
time to help them.
The program is scheduled to air Thursday.
Winfrey is ending her successful talk show at the
end of the season after 25 years.
