PODCAST: Oprah cashes in on Lance’s confession, 7-11 tries to retake Manhattan

Oprah Winfrey hopes Armstrong's doping confession will boost her cable network. 7-11 wants to expand in Manhattan. Yelp plans to add health scores to restaurant ratings.

Oprah Winfrey hopes the great shame of Lance Armstrong’s doping will bring new fame to her cable network OWN.

American mayors are meeting in Washington. A group of them has become one of the loudest voices in favor of new gun laws. 

Think 7-11 and you probably think of the suburbs. There aren’t many in Manhattan, but 7-11 wants to expand in New York. 

Yelp tells you what regular folks really think about restaurants, but now it’s adding the dirty truth. It’s rolling out a feature where cities can add health scores to the site. It starts in San Francisco before rolling out to New York and elsewhere.
