Oprah wrote and lost her Michelle Obama essay for TIME Magazine on her BlackBerry
by The PocketBerry Team
Oprah Winfrey was writing a loving tribute to the first lady Michelle Obama in the “Time 100″ section of Time Magazine. She goes into details as far back as 2004 when she had dinner with Michelle. She apparently wrote the whole article on her BlackBerry as a memo, and just missed the save button and cancelled the whole thing. Why don’t you have Docs to Go Oprah?
After being asked about the whole situation, she smiled without any panic and said “I’d been saving little notes on my BlackBerry. You know, I’d think of something and I’d put it on BlackBerry in the memo section. And then I went to hit the wrong button and the whole thing deleted! I went to hit ‘Save’ and instead I hit … ‘Oh my God! Oh my God! It’s gone!’ That ever happened to you? And then you can’t remember — not one sentence you wrote.”
She didn’t panic or anything in the aftermath actually. After not recalling anything she had just written, she went ahead and wrote it all over again. With her man by her side at the time, Oprah looked at Stedman for some relief. “Stedman was like, ‘Well, the reason that happened is obviously you’re going to write something better.’”
