CHICAGO — Oprah Winfrey’s charity, The Angel Network, is shutting down as her talk show draws to a close.The network stopped accepting donations this week and said on its website that it plans to dissolve as soon as its remaining funds are disbursed.
The Angel Network was launched in 1998 with donations from viewers of Oprah’s talk show; its demise stems from Oprah’s decision to end her Chicago-based show in 2011 after 25 years on the air, Angel Network spokeswoman Angela DePaul said.
