Oprah hosted a town hall on racism, which aired on all Discovery-owned channels, and people were curious: Does Oprah own the Discovery Network?

It’s no surprise that Oprah Winfrey was selected to lead a very long-overdue conversation about race relations and systemic racism in the United States. 

The media mogul held a two-night town hall meetings on the topic — and the special aired across all Discovery Global Platforms. 

This prompted many to wonder if Oprah doesn’t just own her channel, the OWN Network, but all the Discovery Network properties. 

Oprah took over the Discovery Network for her town hall.

OWN Spotlight: Where Do We Go From Here tackled big discussions on race matters in the United States and Oprah assembled a panel full of Black activists, leaders, and artists. 

The special aired on OWN, the network that Oprah owns, and across all Discovery’s 18 other US-based networks. 

The panel featured Ava DuVernay, Stacey Abrams, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, Nikole Hannah-Jones, Rashad Robinson, Ibram Kendi, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II, Jennifer Eberhardt, David Oyelowo, and Charles M. Blow – and was hosted by Oprah.
